Product Management Certification with Agile Product Owner and Scrum - The Sprint Retrospective

The Sprint retrospective is the final step in a Sprint, typically following the Sprint review. It provides an opportunity for the Scrum team, including the product owner and Scrum Master, to identify areas for improvement. The retrospective focuses on three main questions: what worked, what didn't, and what could be improved. This process helps the team brainstorm actions to start, stop, or continue to enhance functionality, ensuring the product is the best it can be for the end user.
