Retros

In team retrospectives, especially when involving remote members, it's crucial to include all participants equally. Tools like Scatter Spoke, Realtimeboard, and Retrium facilitate this.

Kerth's prime directive
"Regardless of what we discover, we understand and truly believe that everyone did the best job they could, given what they knew at the time, their skills and abilities, the resources available, and the situation at hand."

--Norm Kerth, Project Retrospectives: A Handbook for Team Review

retrospect on this
Items for retro

retro is a fundamentally vulnerable exercise

ensure safety

because we give feedback

appreciations

everyone here is a hero: you contributed something special, something from the heart this last Iteration

each person can take turns giving their appreciations

pick one item to resolve

prioritize quickly then spend more time on resolutions

invisible work

workflow improvements

experiments

Own and Improve Team Processes

how healthy are these processes?

what processes do we have on the team

communication w/client

planning

QA

execution

How Intrinsic Motivation is supported

Mastery

Purpose

Autonomy

identify pains that you are living with and come up with ways to address it for yourself and for others
3 Pillars of Empirical Process Control

inspection

code reviews

transparency

retros are bottom up opportunities to figure out ways for improvement
secret sauce in everything is taking a look at what you are doing
Josh Anderson
Remote
1-2 remote team members

have an advocate in the room

the hands of the remote person

put up stickies, etc.

AKA "sticky buddies"

PO's role in Retro
do not dominate discussion

bottleneck when everyone is waiting for you to solve issues

we want Team to learn to find solutions

contribute

poke at the problem

refrain from offering the "how" unless impasse

e.g.

did I do everything to capitalize on the strengths of the team

e.g. capacity

were my stories small enough for the team?

when filling 4Ls talk about how to improve your work, not theirs

listen & watch

Read between the lines

what can we do to make it easier for them in short and long term?

Similarity to SWOT
Buy a Feature
Agile Chairs
split group into managers and workers

then switch workers & managers, and trust workers to do the stepping in their own

what were the managers doing when they weren't micromanaging?

managers tell workers where to step (one at a time), count steps

the facilitator is a moving obstacle
