Agile and Beyond 2017

Have your retrospectives turned into a repetitive ceremony? Do you feel your team looks forward to the end of the retrospective more than the beginning? Many Agile teams fall into the trap of "following the motions" when it comes to a retrospective and begin to lose sight of its goal...inspect and adapt! During this workshop you'll learn, practice, and create a series of creative techniques to get your team engaged and energized about their retrospective. The session will include an overivew of different types of retrospective formats (ex. Traditional Retro, Lean Coffee Style, Lego Build Exercise, and many more) and a review of critical facilitator tips. You will also have the opportunity to work in a team to device your own, unique retrospective technique to share with the larger group.
