How to Run Standup Meetings That Actually Work
Standup meetings can either energize your team or drain their time. Here's how to make yours concise, focused, and genuinely useful.
The daily standup has a reputation problem. Too many teams use this valuable ritual as a status report rather than a problem-solving session.
The Three Questions Rule
Effective standups focus on three core questions: What did you complete yesterday? What will you work on today? What blockers are preventing your progress?
Keep standups to 15 minutes or less. Any deep dives should be scheduled as separate conversations with only the relevant stakeholders.
