Spicing Up Your Retro: Proven Techniques to Energize Teams

I’m giving a live session for entwicker.de / DevOpsCon on November 10: Spicing Up Your Retro: Proven Techniques to Energize Teams.
Are your retrospective meetings not helping teams to improve? Do the same actions keep coming up every time? Do people skip retrospectives or find them boring? Is there a lack of energy and collaboration in the room during the retrospective? There’s no need for any of that! Let’s find out how we can reflect on our retrospectives to turn them into great learning and improvement sessions!
This session provides you with ideas and techniques to debug your agile retrospectives. You’ll learn how to find out why they aren’t working and what you can do to spice them up and make them valuable. Ben will be sharing from his 25+ years of agile retrospectives and will provide practical tools and solutions that you can use in your daily work.
Ben Linders’ talk about the right setup for Agile Retrospectives is part of the DevOps Con in Munich. Meet him in person during the first week of December.
Make your sprint retrospectives more effective. Learn how to get participants to share their past experiences and turn their feedback into actionable steps. You’ll gain techniques to facilitate a collaborative retrospective that’s energizing, not boring.
