About the authors

We are both active bloggers at www.benlinders.com and https://luis-goncalves.com. On our blogs we share our experiences on several agile and lean topics including retrospectives.

During the years we have conducted many different kinds of retrospectives. We think that practicing different exercises helps to develop your own personal toolbox with retrospective exercises and get more value out of them. If you want to get some extra ideas you can access to Agile Retrospectives Ideas.

Notes:

This book is also available on InfoQ: Getting Value out of Agile Retrospectives.
Paperback Edition is published. Get your copy at Lulu, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
