When outside groups come to the PM Guild looking for a paid retrospective, we need to ensure that the quality of the retrospective is high, otherwise we’re not accomplishing our purpose, nor are we providing value to the outside group.

For that reason, only CREDENTIALED PM Guild members may facilitate retrospectives on behalf of the PM Guild. You must be active to be credentialed, but you keep your credential for retrospective even if you stop being an active guild member

The following is a draft “async” retrospective credential workflow:

  1. Active members who are interested in gaining a retrospective credentials should review the following retrospective to understand the basic flow
    1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bri8U-Udf_g
    2. If you have any questions/comments about the retrospective, reach out to @links to ask!
  2. Find a DAO group who is willing to do a retrospective and book a time with them
    1. This retrospective should be FREE for the group, and you must tell the group that you are not yet credentialed by the PM Guild
  3. When you have a retrospective secured, prepare the following (requires PM active member access):
    1. Set up a miro board for the upcoming retro by copying the retrospective template (credentials in VaultWarden)
    2. Set up the feedback form by adding your name to the list of moderators (access to Tally for active members)
    3. Set up a way to record the meeting (you can use craigbot (audio only) or OBS (audio/video). The AV Guild will also record sessions for 100) BANK/hr
  4. Run the retrospective
    1. Don’t forget to record it!
  5. Urge participants to leave you feedback on the form: https://tally.so/r/wzEBQ8
    1. You’ll need at least 3 people to leave you feedback. It’s the only “payment” you’re asking, so this should be do-able
  6. Create a task in the for @links to review your retrospective
    1. Include a link to the recording you took, and your discord name
  7. @links will review your retrospective and feedback.
    1. You need at least 3 feedback and an average of 8 or above for “How useful was the retrospective?” to pass
    2. @links will also review the retrospective recording to judge your professionalism and demeanour
  8. If you pass, you will be awarded a MintKudos NFT which identifies you as a Credentialed PM Guild Retrospective, an associated Discord role, and you will be able to claim paid retrospectives from the PM Guild
    1. If you fail, @links will provide feedback and you can try again
