__NOTOC__
===Use:===
To talk about what abilities are important to an Agile team and how your team rates against them

===Length of time:===
It seems like these retrospectives want to be about an hour long.

===Short Description:===
a retrospective in which teams rated their abilities in each of the categories, displayed the different ratings on a spider graph, and then discussed the result.

===Materials:===
Chart paper, normal paper & pens

		+	The team assembles and sits. They get some paper.
		+
		+	I let a random person pick which pillar to start with. I describe it to them, then tell them to individually rate the whole team against it, on a one-to-five scale, five being the best, then write their rating on some paper. I tell them they can pick a range if they’re not sure which number to pick. (I think that’s what numbers like “3.5″ often mean.)
		+	(In the future, I’ll have the team come to some consensus about what they mean by “one” and “five”. Some people, for example, consider “five” perfection and thus unattainable.)
		+
		+	When they’re ready, they hand the paper to me. While that does make it less obvious which person wrote which number, that’s a minor motivation. I do it more because it gives each person control over how long to think.
		+
		+	Then I plot the values on the spider chart, like this:
		+	[[File:Spider-1.png]]
		+
		+	Then I invite the team to discuss whatever the spread or values bring to mind. If I see something no one mentions, I bring it up, but the discussion is really in their hands. Their talk may lead to action items, but I don’t force it.
		+	After the discussion of one pillar dies down, I have someone pick the next one. (I think that each time we soon just started going clockwise or anti-clockwise.)
