Reviews

." . . a wise and practical book on project retrospectives. It is destined to be a classic in our software engineering and project management literature. . . ."

"Project Retrospectives is a strong book, full of strong features that will make it the classic work in this area."

"The experience and understanding that Kerth puts forward in this book is priceless and should be a roadmap for what to do after every project is considered done."

"The insights into how people work and interact provided in this book are invaluable for anyone in a supervisory role who's trying to build a successful team (that will, in turn, build a successful product)."

"The storytelling process is . . . very powerful when well done, and because of the paucity of storytelling literature, Norman L. Kerth's book . . . is extremely valuable."

"This book does an excellent job of discussing the people issue involved in retrospectives and provides many useful suggestions on how to deal with those issues. "I found this book insightful, interesting, and easy to read."

"This is a book to read cover to cover and then use as a resource, project by project. It is a book for every process improvement coordinator, project leader, software manager, and consultant wishing to improve their organization's performance in learning from experience."

"This is one of the best written, best edited, most nicely presented, and most useful software books I've ever read. "His sensitivity to the complex interpersonal issues surrounding project retrospectives will help any facilitator, participant, or manager get the most out of these important learning activities."
