How can I conduct effective post-mortems?

To conduct effective post-mortems, start by gathering your team to discuss what went well and what didn't.

Ask questions like: What were the project goals? Did we meet them? What challenges did we face?

How do I ensure everyone feels comfortable sharing their thoughts?

Create a safe environment by encouraging open dialogue and emphasizing that the goal is learning, not blaming.

What should I do with the insights gained from the post-mortem?

Document the insights and action items, then share them with the team to implement improvements in future projects.
