Project Sprint Retrospective
Reviewing progress of a project throughout delivery is essential to make sure all is on track and there are no issues in the team. Effective communication ensures everyone can input.
A Sprint Retrospective meeting is a good way to facilitate those discussions, by taking into account what is working and what isn’t. A Sad, Glad, Mad structure to the meeting creates an informal style.
