Roles
There are 2 roles in Power Retro:
Facilitator
The Facilitator directs the flow of the retrospective:
administers the Event Settings
changes the steps on the Progress Bar and leads the conversations
based on the actual step of the Retrospective Event the Facilitator has a number of extra options
the Start Event button is shown to all Users with Create Retrospective Board Jira permission. Clicking it will grant the user the Facilitator role and will start the Retrospective event with changing the board status to the Lobby
Clicking the back to Backlog button it will change the step of the board back to Backlog
The Start Retrospective Event button launches the retrospective event with the actual Event Settings which can be set by clicking the cogwheel button in the top right corner of the screen
Clicking the Start Retrospective Event button is final. The Facilitator can’t step back to the Lobby after doing it.
if the “Everybody has to add at least one idea” option is enabled in the Event Settings and someone has not added any retro cards to the board the Facilitator will get an informative error message about the situation when trying to progress to the next step. The step can be changed regardless by clicking Continue Anyway
the Facilitator can click on the Participants in the Sidebar to filter down to their retro cards
if the “Everyone has to cast at least one vote” option is enabled in the Event Settings and someone has not cast any votes the Facilitator will get an informative error message about the situation when trying to progress to the next step. The step can be changed regardless by clicking Continue Anyway
the Facilitator of the Retrospective Event can create Action Items and change between topics to discuss with the Team
After all necessary topics has been discussed the Facilitator can click the Finish Retrospective button which closes the event and takes everyone to the Summary page
