Technically, retrospectives were an instrument for a group to examine a past joint period of time and learn from that.<\/p>\n<p>The participants of a Retrospective for Organizational Change do not share a joint past, yet they learn from their different individual experiences and use this as a basis to form a shared future. The main strength is to leverage the experiences of a diverse group. Especially if the change is dynamic, which means the approach toward the goal is unclear, or if it is complex, where the goal itself is in-determinate, Retrospectives for Organizational Change can provide a way to support the change.<\/p>\n<p>This book covers the conceptual idea of using Retrospectives for Organizational Change and additionally reports on the feedback and experiences of its practical application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this book, Jutta Eckstein examines how retrospectives can be applied conceptually to initiate and implement
