Daily Stand-up
A daily time-boxed synchronisation ritual from Scrum, run standing up to encourage brevity. Each team member answers three questions: What did I do yesterday? What will I do today? Is anything blocking me? The stand-up is a coordination tool, not a status report to a manager. It surfaces blockers quickly and keeps the team aligned on daily progress.
Come eseguirlo
- 1
Gather the team at a fixed time each day (same time, same place).
- 2
Set a timer for 15 minutes.
- 3
Each person answers in under 2 minutes: 'Yesterday I…', 'Today I will…', 'I'm blocked by…'
- 4
The facilitator (or Scrum Master) notes blockers. These are NOT discussed in the stand-up — schedule a separate conversation immediately after.
- 5
End on time. Conversations that arise go to a 'after party' with only relevant people.
- 6
Update the task board to reflect current status.
Suggerimenti
The stand-up is for the team, not the manager.
If a manager attends and people report to them (not each other), the format has broken down.
Walk the board (go ticket by ticket) instead of going person by person when the team is large or work is complex.
Variazioni
Walk the board: review each in-progress ticket rather than each person. Async stand-up: team posts updates in a shared channel (good for distributed teams across time zones).
