| Criterion |  Agile Sprint Retrospective |  Team Design Team Cognitive Load Assessment |
|---|---|---|
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. | When a team juggles too many domains, systems, or handoffs, it measures mental overload as an organizational problem. It clarifies responsibility, interaction, and load between teams. The result is captured as a cognitive-load profile and action list. |
Complexitydifferent | Low | Medium |
Timedifferent | Up to 3 hours for a one-month Sprint; shorter Sprints are usually shorter | 60-90 min |
