Question

A hybrid project has just deployed, and the project manager is planning project closure with lessons learned workshops. A key stakeholder informs the project manager that having the Scrum team in the workshops is a waste of time because the project was delivered successfully. What should the project manager do?

Options

  • AInvite the Scrum team members as optional participants.
  • BAsk the Scrum team members to share retrospectives.
  • CInvite the Scrum team members as mandatory participants.
  • DAsk the scrum master to attend the workshops.

Explanation

Despite a project's success, the project manager should encourage Scrum team members to share retrospectives in lessons learned workshops to gather valuable insights for continuous improvement.

Common mistakes.

  • A. Making participation optional might lead to lower attendance and a less comprehensive understanding of the project's successes and challenges from the team's perspective.
  • C. Mandatory participation, especially when questioned by a stakeholder, might lead to resentment; a collaborative request for retrospectives encourages more willing and valuable contributions.
  • D. While the Scrum Master can provide valuable input, the individual experiences of the Scrum team members offer a deeper and broader range of perspectives for lessons learned.
