In recent years retrospectives has taking over from lessons learned, in many ways they serve the same purpose; to review ways of working in a project. However when you say lessons learned you immediately imagine a meeting where the objective is to discuss what went wrong with the project. Project retrospectives have a more positive connotation from the agile principles of teamwork, collaboration, and celebrating successes and can happen throughout the project. The goal of a retrospective is to reflect on the team’s ability to collaborate Please join myself, Delivery Manager at UIS, and Product Manager Holly Cox where we will explore how you in a structured way can gather knowledge and insights throughout lifecycle of a project and ensure continuous improvement.

This session will be run by the community of practice for project management. Find out more here: Join a CoP (sharepoint.com)

This CoP has been set up to create a space where people involved in running Cambridge masters programmes (directors, administrators, teachers, etc) can share ideas and good practice. Ideally, we will be able to help each other navigate the landscape of practice represented by our various roles within masters courses across the university.

PGT CoP events will provide you with the opportunity to network with others working in this area and share practice, and support each other with common challenges. At this first event, we will introduce you to the founders of the PG Masters CoP, and find out what motivated them to set up the community and talk to them about their vision for the group going forward. We will then break in to smaller groups to get to know each other better, and identify areas of common interest, and potential topics to explore together at future events.
