retrospective starfish diagram

Leverage this engaging Retrospective Starfish Diagram slide to facilitate agile team retrospectives and continuous improvement cycles. The central starfish shape is divided into five interactive arms—More Of, Less Of, Keep Doing, Stop Doing, and Start Doing—each highlighted with a vibrant colored circle and icon. Surround text placeholders allow teams to capture action items, insights, and feedback in a visually structured format, making reflection sessions more interactive and results-driven. The dark interior of the star contrasted against a clean white background enhances focus on colored data points, while subtle shadows and crisp typography ensure readability and a modern aesthetic.

Designed for maximum flexibility, this template features master slides, intuitive placeholders, and fully editable shapes, enabling you to customize colors, icons, and text with a few clicks. Whether you are running sprint retrospectives, project evaluations, or team workshops, this slide simplifies preparation and maintains consistency across presentation decks. Seamlessly compatible with both PowerPoint and Google Slides, it preserves high-resolution clarity and layout integrity across devices and platforms.

Beyond retrospectives, this starfish framework can be repurposed for decision-making matrices, brainstorming sessions, risk assessments, or feature prioritization workshops. Duplicate and rename the five segments to map out SWOT analyses, customer feedback categories, performance metrics, or product release strategies. With this versatile infographic, you can drive team alignment, surface actionable insights, and showcase complex concepts with maximum impact and minimal effort.

In line with modern design standards, the starfish diagram uses flat icons, consistent color coding, and well-defined whitespace to guide the eye. The professional layout supports corporate branding guidelines and ensures the slide adapts seamlessly to custom color schemes or typography settings. Easily replace icons with industry-specific symbols, adjust segment radii, or include data callouts to enrich team review presentations or leadership debriefs.
