History of Sprint Retrospectives
Hello dear community, I am currently researching how sprint retrospectives affect employee satisfaction in my master's thesis. Since I have found almost no scientific documents about it, my study follows the exploratory approach.
I took the definition of the sprint retrospective from the Scrum Guide. I would like to add background information about the format of the Sprint Retrospective. For example, how it was developed or from which other format it emerged. Do you know where I can find information about this or who I can ask?
Thank you very much for your help.
Hi, You can find a lot of information in the book Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice the Work in Half the Time. It talks about Deming's method of "PDCA cycle" -plan,do,check, and act, and "Happiness" of the team and how quantify it and how it should be harnessed into productivity.
