About the Team Retrospective Starter Wheel

Use this wheel when a software team wants variety in how a retrospective begins. It helps facilitators choose an opening format without repeatedly defaulting to the same exercise. Spin once at the start of the session, then use the selected activity to gather observations and guide discussion. The options balance structured reflection with lightweight team participation.
