Wait, is the first activity really the demo? Seems odd.

I feel like agreement on the problems to solve is crucial, but I’m not confident it’s the first activity. It might be part of the discussion after the demo.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think the retrospective and problem-solving workshop comes later in the event.

The PI System Demo seems like it would come later in the event, after the initial assessment and problem identification. I'm leaning towards the retrospective and problem-solving workshop as the first recommended activity.

Okay, I think the first step is to agree on the problems to solve. That makes sense as the starting point before diving into the other activities.

Retrospective and problem-solving workshop? More like 'Procrastinate and avoid the problem-solving workshop.' Amirite, folks?

Oh come on, it's clearly the Quantitative measurement! How else are we supposed to know what problems to solve? This is a no-brainer.
