During the Retrospective Session we agreed on the following Action Points as a takeaway from our six months as a team .

What went well?
• Director search delivered without a hitch!
• Each team member pulling their weight and helping others.
• Better DOR and grooming
• Team is getting better at understanding each other.

What didn’t go well :
• Not enough design cycles available
• Having tickets ready to groom (design/reqs flushed out etc.)
• Better estimation on story points
• Consistent and timely direction
• Understanding the Domain/ Business flows
• Unclear about certain requirements.
• Architecture/technical frameworks are not clear

Actions to take.
• Watch other teams for innovations we can use.
• regular check-ins with Kaine.
• Learn to deliver in increments of value.
• Make sure requirements are "cooked" before serving them.
• Understanding requirements better before grooming
• Define flow of requirements more clearly Stakeholders -> UX -> tech

These are our takeaways from the 6-month retrospective sessions we had, we will work on these takeaways as we
Improve as a team. Thank you for being part of the journey so far.

Kind Regards
