Retrospective Magic Video Course
Are your teams improving or stagnating?
It's almost impossible for a team to stay at the same level of effectiveness over time; they're either getting better or getting worse, all the time. We might think that we're just as effective now as we've always been, even if that hasn't been true for a while.
Retrospective meetings are the most common way for teams to improve. I've been facilitating and participating in retrospectives for over twenty-five years and I've learned through practical experience what works and what doesn't.
In this video course, I'll teach you what I wish I'd known when I first started facilitating these.
THIS VIDEO COURSE REVEALS...
- How to run effective team retrospectives that drive real improvement.
- Proven techniques, from an experienced agile coach, that get results, no matter what process you're using: Scrum, Kanban, XP, etc.
- How to create a safe space that encourages honest feedback and constructive problem-solving.
- Practical frameworks and activities you can implement in your next retrospective, for immediate team improvement.
- Subtle tips from neuroscience, psychology, and general human behaviour to take your retrospectives to the next level.
Whether you're about to facilitate your first retrospective, or you've been doing them for years and are ready to take them to the next level, there's something here for you.

What's included in retrospective magic?
Part 1: Setting the foundation
In part 1, we will look at the simplest possible retrospective format. We’ll talk about the basic pattern behind a retrospective and the fundamental steps you need to understand. Even if you’ve never facilitated a retrospective before, part 1 will give you enough of the basics to run your first one.
Part 2 : expanding our options
In part 2, we’ll expand out those basic fundamentals by looking at a variety of different retrospective styles. We’ll see how each is different and yet how they all follow a common pattern. We’ll see the formats that I use most frequently and will discuss why I would select one over the others. We’ll include such favorites as the Starfish, and the Sailboat, as well as some more specialized formats such as Six Thinking Hats and even one using LEGO® Serious Play®.
Part 3 : adding the magic
Then in part 3, we’ll focus on all of those subtle tips and tricks to take your retrospectives to the next level. This is where we’ll talk about neuroscience and psychology, about human behaviour, motivation, and psychological safety.

Retros are such a critical component in allowing us to focus on enhancing what’s good, and improving what isn’t.
Mike provides an exceptional overview of how to facilitate and structure these critical events with a focus on bringing out the best from the people doing the work, and uncovering the opportunities to get better.
Whether you’re new or experienced in helping a group improve through retrospectives, this is an exceptional course to review proven formats, explore ideas, and gain insights into tips and tricks that will help you help your teams.
I can’t recommend this strongly enough.

Having participated in retros with Mike, this course was an excellent reminder of the different techniques that made them effective and memorable.
Mike highlights what makes retrospectives valuable, and helps prepare you for the challenges no one speaks of. He guides you on how to facilitate meaningful conversations between people, followed by taking action to improve.
I highly recommend this course to anyone irrespective of their role, skill level, or experience, as I’m certain you’ll learn something new to elevate your retrospectives to the next level.
