Sharon Allpress, VP of Strategic Engagements at EOT.AI, shares how to lead sprint reviews that are more inclusive, engaging, and effective.
Sprint reviews are more than just demos. They are opportunities for teams to reflect on their work, engage with stakeholders, and ensure features are meeting expectations. In this episode of How I PM, Sharon explains how to use sprint reviews to spotlight team contributions and build shared understanding.
Three ways to improve your sprint review process:
1. Let developers lead the demo. They built the work and deserve to show it.
2. Invite interaction. Create space for users and stakeholders to ask questions and offer feedback.
3. Stay focused. Avoid scope creep by keeping the session centered on release readiness, not feature discovery.
When done well, sprint reviews reinforce ownership, transparency, and trust between teams and their stakeholders.
