Presentation Title: The Many Faces of Retrospectives: a case study by Mindy Bohannon

Presentation Abstract: 

I’ve been playing two roles on my project for over a year – part lead business analyst and part scrum master. Oh, the techniques I’ve learned! The leadership and facilitation aspects of retros and other SM activities have led to my being a better and more caring leader and business analyst. During this session, we’ll review the general goals of a scrum master, how it overlaps with being a BA, and four different types of retrospective activities.  Takeaways: *Responsibilities and overlap of a Scrum Master, Business Analysis, and Leadership *Improvement retro *Celebration retro *Root cause analysis retro *Timeline covering many months or years of work
