* We'll just have it in the General Area, because, Generally everyone needs to do great retrospectives.

* Retrospectives do not need to delve deep to see the problems. They need to delve deep to see the causes.

* Maybe we should have a discussion that clarifies the three concepts:
Post mortem
After-action review
Retrospective

*One topic = Should Kudos for Good Work be handed out during a Retrospectives "What Went Well" ? See https://www.linkedin.com/groups/52030/52030-6342578948513337345for some views

* Should one of our topics be to talk about Tools to run Retrospectives ?https://coalition.agileuprising.com/t/retrospectives-in-distributed-teams-requirements-for-a-tool/1332

* Use the RSVP on this page to indicate that you will be joining us.

* Even if you do bad retrospectives, making your Retrospectives get better is always a good thing.

Retrospectives are like what they say about Pizza. . .
When it's Good,
It's Great.
And when it's Bad,
It's still pretty good.

* Ok, someone tell me why is it that everything at AgilePhilly revolves around Pizza ?

Notes from our online discussion

Impressions

Seeing "Risk" or "Trouble" during a retrospective can be very subjective.

Stock Phrase: Assuming we did all that, what do you expect to be different? What gets unblocked? How does your day change?

Engage, Listen, Confront = Clarity

Teams sometimes have Trouble getting to Specifics.

Other questions raised

Size of team during the retrospective.

Good sound headsets for remote teams = more important than video.

IceBreakers to start, like Pictionary of your Superpower.

Agenda for a Retrospective is a Five Part Play . . .
