Reflection Framework: PMN
What Is PMN?
The Plus / Minus / Next model was introduced to my workfow after reading Tiny Experiments by Anne-Laure Le Cunff. It’s a fast, accessible way to reflect:
- Plus (+) – What went well?
- Minus (–) – What didn’t go as planned?
- Next (→) – What would you do differently?
Why Use It?
PMN helps clarify experiences, capture lessons, and support growth. It’s great for:
- Project reviews
- Learning reflections
- Decision improvement
