What is the Sprint Goal Review retrospective?
The Sprint Goal Review checks the sprint against its goals: Achieved, Partially, Missed, and Why. It keeps the retro anchored to outcomes rather than activity, and the Why column turns misses into learning.
The columns
- Achieved
- Partially
- Missed
- Why
When to use it
Use it when the team regularly misses goals, for sprint reviews, or to make goals more meaningful.
Facilitator tip: phrase goals as outcomes before the session ("customers can export a PDF"), not as tasks. Outcome goals make Achieved and Missed easy to agree on, and the Why column then points to planning, scope or dependencies rather than individuals.
