Scrum/XP Add-onsPractical examples on how to keep a team energised, focused and happy when running one week iterations.We are part of an XP team that over the past 2-3 years have delivered business functionality live to production at the end of each of our 100+ iterations.During each of our iterations we hold stand-ups, retrospectives, planning games, etc which over time have evolved to a point where we now have a bunch of “addons” or “plug-ins” that we’d like to share with the wider community.These “add-ons” include retrospective variations, stand-up/pairing twists, planning variations and a couple of other bits and pieces that just help make day-to-day activities more fun and engaging.This session is not intended to have all the answers, but is intended to provide some extra strings that you can add to you agile bow.
