Abstract:
Project Retrospectives can be a vital part of
any software development project. In Agile development, one of the Principles
Behind the Agile Manifesto states that, “At regular intervals, the team
reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior
accordingly.” How can this be done? This tutorial will present techniques for
facilitating project retrospectives. Attendees will learn how to help their
teams discover what they’re doing well so that successful practices can
continue and identify what should be done differently to improve a team’s
performance. Retrospectives are not finger-pointing sessions, but rather a
highly effective series of activities in which teams reflect on the past in
order to become more effective in the future. Participants will be introduced
to the retrospective process, learn techniques for leading retrospectives, hear
the experiences of the tutorial leaders who have led retrospectives for
numerous projects, and have the opportunity to participate in a retrospective
simulation.
