Retrospectives drift when the loudest voice sets the agenda, or when every idea becomes an action that nobody finishes. This deck moves the first part of the work into asynchronous pre-work, so each person's view is recorded before anyone meets. The live time then goes to themes, one discussion, a vote and two owned actions.

The sample is for Underhill Software, a team of eight across the UK, Portugal and Canada, reviewing sprint 14 in a 60-minute session. Every name, sprint figure and date is fictional. Replace the themes, votes and actions with your team's own, and copy the previous actions in so each one is marked done, dropped or carried over.
