Selected Answer: C

The most effective approach for ensuring balanced participation during retrospectives is: C. Use retrospective techniques, such as silent writing, clustering, and dot voting to field feedback prior to discussion by the team. These techniques allow all team members to contribute their thoughts anonymously or with equal weight, ensuring that everyone has a voice before any open discussion. This helps to mitigate the issue of dominant voices overshadowing more reserved team members.

Selected Answer: C

C. Use retrospective techniques, such as silent writing, clustering, and dot voting to gather feedback prior to discussion by the team. This approach allows all team members, including the more reserved ones, to contribute their thoughts and feedback in a structured manner. It helps in avoiding the influence of vocal team members dominating the conversation.
