    What do you think about this idea?

    **Context** I work as a project leader in strategy and M&A consulting, often on short engagements (3-5 weeks). At the end of these projects, we have "retrospectives"—meetings that sound "cool" but rarely lead to meaningful outcomes. In a high-paced environment, impactful actions from these meetings are overlooked unless the team is heavily guided to prioritize them. **Solution** I’m considering creating a retro platform tailored to these engagements. It would cater to project roles like Partner, Analyst, Project Lead, and focus on reviewing specific key moments (e.g., client meetings, final deliverables, general WLB balance, team spirit, etc.). Unlike other retro/post-mortem tools, it would fit this industry’s (or generally these types of industries') unique needs without forcing an irrelevant way of doing these retros. **Potential MVP functionality that I've been thinking about** * **Customizable questions**: Define reflection questions for each project * **Participant roles & invites**: Assign roles and send invites via email * **Voting**: Prioritize key takeaways * **Send to-dos**: Assign and email action items directly * **Insights from retros**: Spot recurring themes (e.g., WLB issues, not enough client-facing time, etc.) across projects * **Key takeaways summary**: Editable summaries for easy use in PPT slides * **Anonymous input**: Enable more honest feedback * **Pre-retro surveys**: Collect initial feedback prior to the meeting **Why is it different relative to existing retro/post-mortem tools?** In my opinion, after looking for a solution to this in my daily life, I find that existing tools are overly Agile-focused, making them complex and irrelevant for consulting or finance. This solution would simplify retrospectives, tailor them to short-term, high-stakes projects, and emphasize actionable results. I’d use this myself and could easily get colleagues to beta test. Would love to hear your thoughts!
