The document outlines the concept of pre-mortem retrospectives, which aim to identify potential failures before they occur, allowing teams to adapt and make changes proactively. It describes the structure of a premortem meeting, detailing steps such as gathering information, generating insights, and deciding on actions to take based on the team’s reflections. The process encourages team engagement and focuses on both successes and challenges to improve future project outcomes.
