Retrospectives 101 | How To Prepare A Retro In Miro

How to quickly prepare awesome #retrospectives in #remote by using a digital whiteboard like Miro?

Just remember, the objective of a retrospective is continuous improvement. The objective is not to create the most creative retros of the company. I explain how not to overdo it yet provide a lot of value for the team and help them improve what is not working.

I am using #miro an online whiteboard tool that allows an online collaboration of all the team members. Get more #agile with #agilestateofmind

Thank you, will definitely check out Miro to see how it can be used for a retrospective.

Thank you very much for this video. One little recommendation: Miro offers the frame functionality that allows you to hide parts of the board for some time and when it is time to unveil, you can do so by a mouseclick. Another big advantage of frames is that you can export them to PDF format documents. So I store these PDFs in the Teams restricted confluence wiki area as a quick report. If required everyone in the team can take a short look any time without starting miro.

Maria, I'm absolutely hooked on your content, the quality is amazing and the videos are short enough, without clutter. Hoping to see more about Product Owner eventually, will that be a topic you'll tackle?

Good stuff.
It's interesting that you ended up with multiple columns, like in Trello.
We do most of our retros in Trello. We experimented with other software like Miro, which doesn't force you to use columns, but decided things flow better in Trello. By being designed around columns it's very slick if what you want is columns.

Hello Maria, I wanted to know how do you make sure the team is following everything they put on the sticky notes during the retro?

Thanks Maria. I didn’t know that we can look for retro examples in linked

How do you ensure that everyone speaks in retro?
