| Criterion |  Agile Sprint Retrospective |  Knowledge Modeling IBIS |  Knowledge Modeling Feynman Technique |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When a sprint is over and friction shouldn't simply be carried forward, it opens the view onto collaboration and patterns. It creates space to see causes and changes together. | IBIS structures thinking about complex questions as a sequence of issues, ideas, and arguments. The method keeps discussions open without forcing them into premature consensus. | The Feynman Technique checks understanding by explaining a topic so that it stays easy for others to understand. It makes knowledge gaps visible before they become costly in everyday work. |
Complexitydifferent | Low | Medium | Low |
Timedifferent | Up to 3 hours for a one-month Sprint; shorter Sprints are usually shorter | 1-3 h | 20-60 min |
Participantsdifferent | Scrum Team | 2-8 | 1 |
Formatdifferent | Workshop | Workshop + async | Async |
Outputdifferent | Improvement actions, Team agreements | Issue Map, Positions, Argument Notes | Plain-language Explanation, Knowledge Gaps, Study Notes |
