Retrospectives For Organizational Change: An Agile Approach

Synopsis

In This Book, Jutta Eckstein Examines How Retrospectives –originally A Kind Of A Facilitated Workshop For Gaining Feedback– Can Be Applied Conceptually To Initiate And Implement Organizational Change. Technically, Retrospectives Were An Instrument For A Group To Examine A Past Joint Period Of Time And Learn From That. The Participants Of A Retrospective For Organizational Change Do Not Share A Joint Past, Yet They Learn From Their Different Indi-vidual Experiences And Use This As A Basis To Form A Shared Future. The Main Strength Is To Leverage The Experiences Of A Diverse Group. Especially If The Change Is Dynamic, Which Means The Approach Toward The Goal Is Unclear Or If It Is Complex, Where The Goal Itself Is In-determinate, Retrospectives For Organizational Change Can Provide A Way To Support The Change. This Book Covers The Conceptual Idea Of Using Retrospectives For Organizational Change And Additionally Reports On The Feedback And Experiences Of Its Practical Application.
