Thursday 18th March - Agile Superpowers Meetup - How to make engaging remote retrospectives - 6-7PM GMT
This session will explore how we can create immersive retrospective experiences for those we work with
During the session, together as a group, we will crowdsource a theme and create an immersive retrospective together, one which will be community owned
We will then discuss what approaches and methods I use for creating these experiences and for keeping attendees engaged in this increasingly remote working world.
