Summarise a Sprint Review Into a Stakeholder Update
The sprint went fine, but the update reads like a Jira export and stakeholders have stopped reading. This translates the sprint into their language: what the business can now do, one honest sentence on trajectory, what carried over and why, and next sprint's focus in plain words. One page, no jargon.
