Improving the iteration/sprint review
Table of Contents
Tips, ideas and suggestions
- Before the meeting preparation:
- If you are like me and graphic recording is something you use to add clarity to the meetings you facilitate, then I suggest you to find a room with a whiteboard.
- Divide the whiteboard into four areas:
- Sprint status
- Items to be demonstrated
- What’s next
- Stakeholders Feedback
- Sprint status content:
- Sprint/Iteration Goal (if available)
- Amount of Product Backlog Items completed
- Amount of Product Backlog Items not completed
- % Completion Ratio= Completed/not completed
- Sprint Issues that could have impacted sprint outcomes
- Ask the team to tell what Product Backlog Items will be demonstrated
- Ask Product/Service owner or whoever set priorities to tell what’s next in terms of priorities (next sprint high level goal)
- Draw three faces in the “Stakeholders Feedback” area: Happy face, OK face, unhappy face
- During the meeting tricks:
- Welcome everyone
- After the meeting tricks:
