Facilitator, and Participant ". . . Aino has shared a robust,
curated list of antipatterns and how to avoid them. . . . And she
has shared so much more than tips and techniques. You will find a
gold mine--with precious nuggets, including her personal
experiences, effective facilitation resources, and pointers for
extracting yourself and your team when you're stuck." --From the
Foreword by Diana Larsen, co-author, Agile Retrospectives: Making
Good Teams Great Retrospectives are indispensable for continuous
learning and improvement in Lean, Agile, DevOps, and other
contexts, but most of us have suffered through at least one
retrospective that was a waste of time, or worse. Now, leading
agile coach Aino Vonge Corry identifies 24 reasons that
retrospectives fail and shows how to overcome each of them. Using
the familiar "patterns" approach, Retrospectives Antipatterns
introduces antipatterns related to structure, planning, people,
distributed teams, and more. Corry shares traps she's encountered
and mistakes she's made over more than a decade of leading
retrospectives and then presents proven solutions. With her
insights and guidance, you can run enjoyable retrospectives that
deliver concrete improvements and real value--or at the very least
recognize when you are making the same mistake as the author!
Create a common language, actionable solutions, and proven plans
for solving the retrospective problems you'll encounter most often
Recognize symptoms, assess tradeoffs, and refactor your current
situation into something better Plan more effectively: decide who
should attend and facilitate, when to schedule your retrospective,
and how much time to set aside Handle "people" problems: deal with
negativity, silence, distrust, disillusionment, loudmouths, and
cultural differences Facilitate better "virtual" retrospectives,
with tips for online retrospectives included in each antipattern
