Sprint Review vs. Demo

🎁 Notion Template to log Sprint Review

“Wait… aren’t the Sprint Review and the Demo the same thing?”

If you’ve ever heard or asked that question, you’re not alone.

I spent my first year as a Scrum Master using the two terms interchangeably… until a Product VP pulled me aside and asked why stakeholders kept leaving our “reviews” with more questions than answers.

That uncomfortable discussion sent me down a learning rabbit hole that changed the way I ran the two “very different” events.

In this post, I will share:

1. why the two events not the same thing

2. how to run each well, and

3. handy template to log Sprint Reviews

Let’s get started.
