A retrospective is an essential part of any product team's process, allowing teams to trial and error new processes, keep iterating on how they work together, and learn from mistakes. Running a retrospective remotely can be done with minimal adjustments, requiring fewer people than usual due to the safety and space for open discussion it provides. The key steps in running a remote retrospective include deciding who needs to be present, getting buy-in, scheduling the retro, choosing a format, setting up the tool, starting the retro, running the retro, being the time keeper, sending out notes, and thanking everyone for participating. With the right approach, retrospectives can be game-changing for teams, helping them grow, learn from mistakes, and improve their collaboration.
