I agree that the Retrospective is an important part of the Sprint process. We work entirely with distributed teams, normally in different time zones, so quite often many of the retrospective actions revolve around improving the communications process (we can always do something better!). The team members love it because they get to see positive improvements; the client benefits and we all get to do achieve more (and our life is easier!).

Here’s a link to a blog I wrote about one of our live Retrospectives, which I throw in to the ring to share knowledge: http://blogs.sixninjas.com/paul15/?p=73.

PS – where do you find the time to write so many great blogs!

Paul
