Fables and Reflections

Get together with your team for an Agile Retrospective to do some reflection and work on your Improvement Backlog.

Summary

An Agile Retrospective is much more than a team meeting with a facilitator. Key to continuous improvement in self-organizing teams, it will allow your company to incorporate feedback loops, ownership and discuss problems and responsibilities frequently. This chapter covers the most common tools and processes to incorporate retros in the team and helps you set expectations.
