Melbourne Scrum User Group November Meetup

Hi guys,

I am delighted introduce our topics for Nov 26. Geoff thanks for your help it organising a great venue.

Topic 1: Milestone Retrospectives

While small retrospectives are simple to run, milestone retrospectives need more planning both to discover information and create action plans, etc.  This interactive session will demonstrate some of the activities used to run a milestone retrospective.
