Why have recess?
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”text-container” _builder_version=”3.19.10″]
We’ve all been there… Retros stuck in a rut.
Your team is just going through the motions of “what went well, what should we change, <yawn>”. They’re frustrated because many of the impediments they bring up are out of their control. They play it safe, suggesting small improvements that won’t make much of a difference, or worse: they tune out, stop talking, and ask if they can shorten retros or stop them altogether. Even when
they do find something they agree to work on,
they don’t always take action.
You may feel overwhelmed, wondering how you might help your team strive for continuous improvement, even when they face impediments that are out of their control.
Plus, there’s a ton of work to do, so you find yourself reverting to the same old retrospectives just to get by until next sprint.
Being stuck sucks. I get it. Let’s get your team engaged.
It’s time for Recess!
Recess gives you everything you need for an engaging retrospective, without adding to your workload.

How Does it Work?
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”text-container” _builder_version=”3.19.10″]
Each month, a Recess kit will get shipped direct to your door. Inside, you’ll find everything you need to break for Recess: a playbook outlining exactly how to facilitate the retrospective, a snack (because all good retros include snacks!), plus all the supporting materials needed.
Each Recess retrospective takes about an hour to run. Have your team show up armed with a pen and expect them to leave with smiles on their faces and an actionable plan for improving their work together moving forward.
We’ve done all the hard work for you. No need to spend hours planning your retrospective, collecting supplies, or agonizing over how to facilitate. Just show up and PLAY!
Running the same retrospective repetitively is a recipe for disaster, right? That’s why Recess sends you a brand new kit monthly, each based around a theme. Think: “Welcome to Hollywood”, “Humans vs. Zombies”, and “Mission to Mars”.
Absolutely, positively no PowerPoint included.

Who’s idea was this anyway?
Spoiler alert: It was adam
Years ago, before Adam Weisbart was a Certified Scrum Trainer, before he’d trained and coached thousands of people around the world to help their teams become even more awesome than they already were, he made some cookies. Not just any cookies, but Retrospective Cookies — fortune cookies with delicious questions for team retrospectives baked inside. He tweeted about them, and people asked if they could buy some. He said yes, and even though boxing cookies was not his thing, he sent hundreds of boxes all over the world to help people make their retros more delicious.
…and thus began Adam’s love affair with unique retrospectives!
Driven by his background in improvisational comedy and his love of games as a way to learn and improve, Adam’s been at the forefront of making Agile enjoyable through original tools like Build Your Own Scrum, Agile Antipattern Cards, Agile Adlibs, and of course his hilarious video
When you open a Recess kit, you’ll be benefiting from the agile wisdom that Adam has honed over the last decade, working with clients including Apple, Microsoft, Automobile Association of America, BitTorrent, Action Against Hunger, and many more.
