FAQs
The Start Stop Continue exercise inspires the entire team to reflect on past experiences and visualize what’s around the bend. By sorting activities, projects, and processes under the categories “Stop,” “Start,” and “Continue,” teams and individuals can arrive at a consensus as to what they should leave in the dust (stop), what they should power up (start), what they should keep on pushing (continue).
Because Start Stop Continue exercises involve a deep look at the past and thorough discussion of the future, they can be beneficial for organizing retrospective meetings.
Stop Start Continue exercises have a three-part format. Generally speaking, Start Stop and Continue templates are divided into three equal sections—one for “Start,” one for “Stop,” and one for “Continue.” Teams or individuals can place projects, data, relationships, products, and initiatives within the sections that correspond to their value or utility—in other words, whether they’re driving you toward success and positive feedback or getting in the way.
Leading a Start Stop Continue meeting is simple. It boils down to prompting your team to reflect on their work, keeping the group on task, and recording the presented information.
