Back to Basics: Standups & Retros That Rock

Back to Basics - Some of our events will be themed as back to basics, meaning they will explore a topic on the fundamentals of Agile and Scrum.

Here is our first "Back to Basics" topic description:
Let’s be honest, most standups or daily scrums feel like status updates, and most retrospectives end with “we should do better next time.”
This session is about fixing that.
We’ll talk through:

• The most common standup and retrospective anti-patterns
• What actually makes them useful
• A set of simple techniques you can try with your team the very next Sprint

No theory. No dogma. Just practical, real-world facilitation tips.
If you’ve ever thought, “There has to be a better way to run these,” you’re in the right place.
