Meetup Description
Are you tired of backlog refinement sessions that feel like a never-ending cycle of monotony, where team members zone out, and alignment remains elusive? If so, this webinar is for you!
Take advantage of this opportunity to revolutionise your backlog refinement process and unleash the full potential of your team’s creativity and collaboration.

Hosted by our trainer-coach Francesco Bianchi, renowned for his visual skills, this engaging webinar will dive into the root causes of ineffective backlog refinement meetings, where misalignment and lack of shared understanding lead to wasted efforts and suboptimal results.

Traditional storytelling methods often fall short of fostering true collaboration and alignment within teams. In this webinar, you’ll discover the magic of visual techniques that tap into the collective creativity and diverse perspectives of your team members.

Through hands-on exercises and real-world examples, you’ll learn how to harness the power of collaborative storytelling, where everyone contributes their unique narratives and visualisations. By comparing and synthesising these stories, you’ll uncover deeper insights, foster shared understanding, and ultimately align your team around a clear and compelling vision. Say goodbye to boring backlog refinement sessions. Embrace a dynamic, engaging approach that motivates your team to truly collaborate and align on what matters most.

Unlock the secrets to:

• Enhancing team engagement and fostering psychological safety
• Building shared understanding through visual storytelling techniques
• Aligning your team around a cohesive vision and clear priorities
• Maximising the value of your backlog refinement sessions
