Continuous Retrospectives
summary
Proposes replacing end-of-project retros with a public real-time timeline (sticky notes or index cards posted as events occur) plus an experiment row for immediate, tiny experiments; teams use the board for standups, walking-by reviews and to sleep on ideas between updates. Claims this reduces recall and confirmation-bias problems, leverages unconscious idea-generation, and produces measurable gains—one study shows a 22.8% test-score increase from daily 15-minute reflections.
