What is an event retrospective?

When it comes to continuous improvement, a little reflection is key. Event retrospectives are interactive surveys that give event attendees a chance to reflect openly about what worked and what didn’t during an event. In this template, you can ask participants to record their thoughts about specific aspects of the event, including their favorite parts, takeaways, or impression of your brand.
