It is easy to be busy. Every one of us has plenty to do. We start marching towards our goals, and after some time we can’t catch the breath because we are already running. When we run, it is not easy to stop. It is also easy to run too far in the wrong direction. That’s why retrospective mindset is so important. It goes far beyond the professional context of our lives. It should be the default mode for our endeavours.
Retrospective mindset
- first step is to be self-aware
- think in short loops: idea -> test -> feedback -> improvement -> test / prod -> idea
- this applies to everything;
- Product development,
- Career development,
- meeting agenda,
- Team offsite format,
- presentation,
- One on one meeting format,
- Outage retrospective learnings,
- Sprint summary,
- Family holiday 🙂
