5. What
people
have
said…
the
difference
from
the
last
few
)mes
was
like
night
and
day.
I
had
some
worries
going
in
some
team
members
would
be
reluctant
to
engage
but
found
that
no
one
held
back
and
everyone
got
involved
in
scribbling
on
the
sheet
and
talking
about
the
sprint.
AFerwards
I
got
some
very
enthusiasIc
feedback
from
the
people
who
I'd
originally
worried
about!
6. Norway
• SImulates
equality
among
team
members
• Few/no
barriers
for
parIcipants
to
express
themselves
• Prevent
the
Scrum
Master
from
falling
into
a
"team
leaderish"
role
sessions
less
bureaucraIc
and
more
inspiring
• We
spend
our
Ime
on
issues
of
real
value
to
the
team
instead
of
ceremony
parts
no
one
really
likes

7. What
people
have
said…
Using
the
sheet
definitely
promoted
discussion
in
the
retrospecIves
and,
by
bringing
the
focus
away
from
the
facilitator,
the
team
concentrates
more
on
the
project.
The
team
thought
it
was
a
fun
way
of
doing
a
retrospecIve,
it
felt
fresh.
When
I
asked
them
if
we
should
try
using
them
in
the
future,
the
answer
was
a
definite
yes.
8. What
people
have
said…
Walking
around
the
pods,
it
was
interesIng
to
see
that
the
teams
posted
their
resulIng
sheets,
and
in
one
case
had
referenced
it
several
Imes
during
a
conversaIon
about
an
issue
they
were
discussing.
9. I
was
a
bit
nervous
about
trying
something
…
but
the
energy
in
the
room
was
tremendous.
In
fact
I
had
several
people
tell
me
it
was
the
best
retrospecIve
they
have
had
in
years.
