The sheets can be used to hold retrospectives without a facilitator.  Users of the sheets commonly report:\n* Fun and fresh retrospectives\n* Increased participation, especially from team members who are normally quieter\n* Facilitator does not become focus of attention or act \"Team Leader-ish\"\n* More focus on the work and problems\n* Reduced administration and bureaucracy\n\nAlthough most of the teams using the sheets have some kind of Agile process not all users do.  Some of the sheets are more general.\n\nSheets have also been used to hold distributed retrospectives with teams in different locations completing them separately and comparing their results.\n\nThe sheets are available for free download from [http://www.softwarestrategy.co.uk/dlgsheets/index.html Software Strategy] or [http://www.dialoguesheets.com DialogueSheets.com].\n\nPrinting 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.\n\nSeveral articles have been published about the sheets elsewhere:\n* [http://www.infoq.com/articles/dialogue-sheets-retrospectives InfoQ, January 2012]\n* [http://www.methodsandtools.com/archive/archive.php?id=124 Methods & Tools, Fall 2011]\n\nDialogue 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].\n\nCurrently 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."
