SUNDAY REWIND: The secret weapon of retrospectives – the Team Radar
You know that moment when you realise that something in your team isn't quite right? Sometimes you're the only one who sees it too. It's never a fun feeling, but often, your ability to spot the problem can be put to good use. Today we find out how via a 2019 post by independent product leadership coach and author Petra Wille.

There’s a saying from the world of coaching that springs to mind here: “You can’t push the car you’re sitting in.” It’s the same principle – if, as a product manager, you spot patterns emerging before everyone else, it’s because you’re not really a part of the team. And that’s an advantage you should put to good use.
