<div>Been away from the code face for a long time (too long?) - spend my time on the process/requirements/management side these days; i.e. things that go by the name of "Agile".<br />

<hr />
<div>Retrospective Dialogue Sheets are large (A1) sheets of paper printed with instructions and questions for a retrospective. The sheets can be used to hold retrospectives without a facilitator. Users of the sheets commonly report:<br />
* Fun and fresh retrospectives<br />
* Increased participation, especially from team members who are normally quieter<br />
* Facilitator does not become focus of attention or act "Team Leader-ish"<br />
* More focus on the work and problems<br />
* Reduced administration and bureaucracy<br />
<br />
Although most of the teams using the sheets have some kind of Agile process not all users do. Some of the sheets are more general.<br />
<br />
Sheets have also been used to hold distributed retrospectives with teams in different locations completing them separately and comparing their results.<br />
<br />
The sheets are available for free download from [http://www.softwarestrategy.co.uk/dlgsheets/index.html Software Strategy] or [http://www.dialoguesheets.com DialogueSheets.com].<br />
<br />
Printing the sheets can present a barrier for those without a wide printer/plotter. There is a print-on-demand service from the download site but the postage costs can be expensive. Local commercial printers can often be quite cheap.<br />
<br />
Several articles have been published about the sheets elsewhere:<br />

Dialogue Sheets were originally invented at KTH in Stockholm and have been used in teaching at Cass Business School in London. Allan Kelly ([[User:Allan_kelly]]) used these ideas to produce the Retrospective sheets. He has [http://allankelly.blogspot.co.uk/search?q=Dialogue+Sheets several blog entries on the sheets too].<br />

Currently all the sheets are in English, some sheets have been translated to Spanish and French and Allan happy to work with others if they wish to translate them.</div>Allan kellyhttps://retrospectivewiki.org/index.php?title=Retrospective_Dialogue_Sheets&diff=492Retrospective Dialogue Sheets2013-02-27T12:37:03Z<p>Allan kelly: Fix again...</p>
