Retrospective Facilitator
Monday, August 4, 2003

I just finished reading the first two chapters of Norm Kerth's Project Retrospectives. I am very encouraged thus far, and more interested than ever in pursuing more opportunities to facilitate retrospectives. The skill mix that Norm describes seems an excellent fit for my background, with the exception of no project management experience. I already appreciate this book for exposing me to that bit of insight: to facilitate a retrospective, the facilitator will benefit from having experience on both sides of the fence...

"Because a retrospective facilitator in the software engineering field needs a broad range of skills, knowledge, and ability, it is advantageous if he or she is also a disciplined practitioner of software engineering and project management methods." (pages 32-33)
