A couple of weeks ago I discussed a way to run Sprint retrospectives with the scrumdevelopment user group on Yahoo. I proposed to use the recent Sprint burn down chart during the Sprint retrospective as a guideline for the team: Instead of putting sticky notes with significant events on a rather abstract timeline representing the Sprint we put them directly on the respective Sprint burndown chart.

This is a great way of setting the context for a Sprint retrospective. I suggest changing the way of doing retrospectives every now and then to prevent routine from setting in. Br, Kai
