Looking for a way to give your team a kick start at the retrospective meeting? Try having a 5 minutes retrospective – I\u2019ll tell you how\u2026<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Invite your team for the usual time slot allocated for the sprint retrospective meeting<\/li>\n
  2. Prepare the meeting room by hanging up a poster with 3 captions: \u201cBest task\u201d, \u201cMost positive experience\u201d and \u201cWhat could be better\u201d<\/li>\n
  3. Let the team spend 60 seconds on, instantly, creating a post-it for each of the three captions<\/li>\n
  4. Let each team member present the three post-its in one sentence and place it under the appropriate caption. Group where applicable.<\/li>\n
  5. Rank the post-its by letting each team member draw a dot on the post-it they like the most\/think is most important\u00a0– they are allowed to draw a total of two dots. Time box the ranking to 60 seconds.<\/li>\n
  6. Spend the remaining time on assigning responsible team members to the 3 post-its.<\/li>\n
  7. Have cake or beer!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Why should you do this? I often hear scrum masters and team members complaining that they are stuck in a standard way of conducting the retrospectives. To radically change the mindset, one could introduce the 5 minutes retrospective as an alternative.<\/p>\n

    The output of such blitz events is surprisingly good as everyone unloads whatever they have at top of mind without thinking strategic or political.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
