Improve Every Retrospective! Real Solutions for Every Team Leader, Facilitator, and Participant
“. . . Aino has shared a robust, curated list of antipatterns and how to avoid them. . . . And she has shared so much more than tips and techniques. You will find a gold mine--with precious nuggets, including her personal experiences, effective facilitation resources, and pointers for extracting yourself and your team when you're stuck.”
--From the Foreword by Diana Larsen, co-author, Agile Retrospectives: Making Good Teams Great
Retrospectives are indispensable for continuous learning and improvement in Lean, Agile, DevOps, and other contexts, but most of us have suffered through at least one retrospective that was a waste of time, or worse. Now, leading agile coach Aino Vonge Corry identifies 24 reasons that retrospectives fail and shows how to overcome each of them.

Using the familiar “patterns” approach, Retrospectives Antipatterns introduces antipatterns related to structure, planning, people, distributed teams, and more. Corry shares traps she's encountered and mistakes she's made over more than a decade of leading retrospectives and then presents proven solutions. With her insights and guidance, you can run enjoyable retrospectives that deliver concrete improvements and real value--or at the very least recognize when you are making the same mistake as the author!
  • Create a common language, actionable solutions, and proven plans for solving the retrospective problems you'll encounter most often
  • Recognize symptoms, assess tradeoffs, and refactor your current situation into something better
  • Plan more effectively: decide who should attend and facilitate, when to schedule your retrospective, and how much time to set aside
  • Handle “people” problems: deal with negativity, silence, distrust, disillusionment, loudmouths, and cultural differences
  • Facilitate better “virtual” retrospectives, with tips for online retrospectives included in each antipattern

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Aino Vonge Corry (born 1971 in Aarhus, Denmark) is an independent consultant, who sometimes works as an agile coach.

After gaining her Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2001 she spent the next 10 years failing to choose between being a researcher/teacher in academia, and being a teacher/facilitator in industry. She eventually squared the circle by starting her own company, Metadeveloper, which develops developers by teaching CS, teaching how to teach CS, inviting speakers to IT conferences, and facilitating software development in various ways. She has facilitated retrospectives and other meetings for the past 15 years during which time she has made all the mistakes possible in that field.

Aino has lived in Stockholm, Lund, and Cambridge, but she is now back in Aarhus, Denmark, where she lives with her family, and a growing collection of plush cephalopods.

Retrospectives Antipatterns is a masterpiece. Undoubtedly my favorite book about retrospectives.

As we all know, many problems may emerge when it comes to facilitating retrospectives.

Not only Aino Vonge Corry has listed 24 of the most recurring issues, but the author also delivers simple and accurate solutions to solve these problems.

Last but not least: reading this book is actually a very enjoyable experience. The story and the characters behind this book are lovely.

Simply put, there's much to learn from Retrospectives Antipatterns. Applying the concepts from this book will make you a greater facilitator.
