1150 Words5 Pages

Today we know that using an Agile Method is not for every type of project. For projects where change is not so frequent, a traditional model maybe more useful.

(MountainGateSoftware) There are many ways in conducting a retrospective meeting but this method basically involves team members identifying what they should start, stop or continue to do.
