1 What is a product retrospective?

A product retrospective is a meeting or session where the product team reflects on the recent work done, the results achieved, and the challenges faced. The goal is to identify what went well, what didn't go well, and what can be done better in the future. A product retrospective can be done at the end of a project, a release, a sprint, or any other time frame that makes sense for the team and the product.

As a PM, I always took the opportunity to capture lesson's learned in form of product retrospective session. It is one of the continuous learning approach to take a step back, analyze and discuss This can be in form of focus group with identified persona for the product and stakeholders. Basically, begin retrospective meeting with creating an environment where team members discuss how was the last sprint with clearly defining on achievements, improvements and learnings or feedbacks. It is recommended to have time bound approach in conducting the retrospective otherwise it will carry over for a period of time.

- Sempre reforce o ambiente seguro e aberto - "de cora??o aberto". - Experimente diferentes formatos e técnicas de retrospectiva para manter as coisas interessantes. Alguns exemplos incluem "Start-Stop-Continue", "Linha do Tempo" e "Glad, Sad, Mad". - Promova a Participa??o Ativa, garanta que todos os membros da equipe tenham a oportunidade de contribuir. Evite que uma ou duas pessoas dominem a conversa.
