The purpose of the Sprint Retrospective is to: - Inspect how the last Sprint went with regards to people, relationships, process, and tools; - Identify and order the major items that went well and potential improvements; and, - Create a plan for implementing improvements to the way the Scrum Team does its work.

1. Retrospective
Summary meeting at the sprint end
Favara Vincenzo

2. About me
Retrospective
It allows team to learn, think and decide
together
It’s not the place to have individual
feedback
It’s not the answer to fill tech or
collaboration skills gaps
It should be unique

3. Retrospective standard framework
How can improve retrospective?
Set the stage (establish its focus)
Gather data (create a shared poll of data)
Generate insights (understanding influences and causes)
Decide what to do (action item)
Close it (contributions and better ideas to next one)

Measurable – how can you quantify progress?
Achievable – can you actually accomplish this?
Relevant – does it matter? will it fix the problem?
