Close the Loop! Simplifying A3 Thinking for Team Retrospectives by Cara Turner
Channel: ConfEngine
Date: 2015-02-25

This is an immersive workshop that addresses an element often missing from agile retrospectives: the verification steps of inspecting and evaluating the improvement goal. We do this by applying the same ‘test’ conditions we apply to software, to the improvement process. This concept is already present in Lean problem solving techniques: A3 Thinking, which caters for significant problems at an organization level, and Kaizen, which is aimed more at individuals. This workshop adapts the experimental process for the agile team level, to create clear and testable retrospective goals, and follow through on evaluating the results.
