Chapter 12 Applying Scrum - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Moreover, if you will have ambiguous situations in which you are not sure of what you need to do, you will have to give your goals an order (not just a priority, since they may have the same value). Having a clear order will help you in deciding how to spend your time in case of ambiguities.
- - - - Your objective during the review is to refine your backlog and to add new items (or to remove others) according to what you achieved
    - - This is probably the most important moment for your growth and your path to being happier. The retrospective is a moment in which you will look at what you have done and find out ways to improve your processes and your relations.
        
        The key element is to keep the focus on one problem at a time and to find actionable items.
        
        It’s important to distinguish between action points and actionable items. An action point is when, by looking behind your back, you see that you may have required a better communication to improve your life at home. An actionable item is something tangible that you will do the next sprint, like “leaving a post-it with the reminder of what to buy” to make it easier for your companions to go grocery shopping.
      - A good retrospective will pass through 5 stages:
        
        setting the stage, where you will break the ice and start discovering what’s your purpose for that moment.
        
        Gather the data, so, looking at what you tracked that can help you understand what did not work in relation to the identified problems.
        
        Generate insights, where you will start giving a meaning to the data you gathered
        
        Find what to do, in which a list of actionable items will be generated.
        
        Closure, where you will wrap up what you just decided and commit yourself to improve
        
        Even if you do a solo-retrospective, it’s very useful to visualize your thoughts. A retrospective could last even one hour, so you may generate data and insights that after 20 minutes of self-reflection may just disappear from your vision.
