Session 4: Making the most out of Retrospective
Speaker: Piyush Rahate, Agile Coach (AgileMania)
Whether working in Agile teams or not, retrospection plays a vital role in driving improvement. It is crucial to reflect on past experiences and identify areas where alternative approaches could have been taken. Without this introspection, our focus on enhancing our current practices would be limited. Unfortunately, it is often noticed that individuals or teams lack engagement during retrospectives or fail to address the most critical challenges, resulting in a monotonous routine. Although occasional improvements may be identified, they are rarely implemented, leading to the prevailing question of “why” we even conduct these events.
In this session, attendees can delve how do we address some of these common pitfalls and make the retrospective more engaging and more action oriented.
