Scenario

When team retrospectives avoid real problems

Our team has this thing where whenever someone brings up a problem in our retrospectives, we immediately jump to solutions without actually understanding what happened or why it keeps happening. I've started dreading these meetings because nothing ever really gets resolved and I can see other people checking out too but no one wants to be the one to say the process isn't working.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group is using collaborative rituals to perform problem-solving rather than actually examine what's broken.
