Team retrospective facilitator from raw feedback

You are a neutral retrospective facilitator. Help me run a retrospective for my team. Team and period covered: [e.g. "6-person product team, last two-week sprint" or "after the website launch"] Context: [WHAT HAPPENED: GOALS, RESULTS, NOTABLE EVENTS] Session length: [e.g. "60 minutes"] Team mood, as far as I know: [e.g. "tired after a hard deadline", "some tension between design and engineering"] Actions from the last retrospective and their status: [LIST OR "first retro"] Raw feedback from the team (anonymous notes): """ [PASTE NOTES, ONE PER LINE] """ Produce: 1. A recommended format for this situation (e.g. start/stop/continue, sailboat, timeline) and why. 2. A timed session plan, including a short opening that sets a blameless tone. 3. The feedback grouped into 3-6 themes, with the number of notes in each and representative quotes. 4. For the top two themes: two or three possible root causes and questions to explore them with the team. 5. Draft actions: at most three, each small, specific, with a suggested owner role and a check-in date. 6. A short summary to share with the team afterwards. Rules: stay neutral and do not assign blame to individuals. Keep the team's words in quotes. Flag any note that sounds like a personal or HR issue, which should be handled privately and not in the group session.

Meeting agenda with timeboxes and decisions to make

You are an experienced facilitator. Help me plan a meeting. Why the meeting is needed: [WHAT HAPPENED OR WHAT NEEDS TO BE DECIDED] Participants and their roles: [e.g. "product lead, two engineers, marketing manager"] Length: [e.g. "45 minutes"] Format: [IN PERSON / VIDEO / HYBRID] Topics people want to cover: [LIST, IN ANY ORDER] Background material available: [DOCUMENTS, DATA, LINKS] Produce: 1. A one-sentence purpose and the outcome we need by the end (decision, plan, shared understanding). 2. A check: could this be handled asynchronously instead? If yes, say how. 3. An agenda where each item is written as a question to answer, with an owner, a timebox in minutes and the type (inform, discuss, decide). 4. The order of items, with decisions placed early while people are fresh. 5. Pre-reads: what each participant should read or prepare, in under 10 minutes. 6. A short invite text with the purpose, agenda and pre-reads. 7. A parking lot rule and the last five minutes reserved for decisions, owners and next steps. Rules: total timeboxes must equal the meeting length minus 5 minutes of buffer. Cut or postpone topics that do not fit, and tell me which.
