Top 3 Things Not To Do At A Standup

Top 3 Things Not To Do At A Standup

Don't:

  1. Ask what people did since yesterday.
  2. Ask what they're planning to do today.
  3. Ask what's blocking the team's progress.

Instead, let people walk the wall right to left:

  1. Let people figure out who will pull each work item toward done.
  2. Let people suggest ways to help that person do that.
  3. Let people organise who will help who when.

If anything else comes up, take it offline. If anyone feels a need to point at something on the wall or move something on the wall, let them point at it or move it.No one needs to worry about how long it takes because this way it's over in 5 minutes anyway.

I usually get through all 6 questions is under 15 min. Understanding what people are doing is not "bad" is it? It is certainly not dis-empowering the team or reducing their autonomy; not sure of your point here Peter

Interesting idea but will it work if people`s skills or motivation were not very high?
