Scrum and other agile methods have introduced the concept of daily standup meetings in which a cross-functional team meets briefly to discuss progress, identify barriers to performance, and help solve each others' problems. These meetings have become so widespread that many organizations -- even ones who don't know that it is an agile technique -- are using them to improve communications, collaboration, and inter-team coordination. Yet, many don't know how to make the most of the technique, often repeating common mistakes and some even abandoning the meetings as a result.
In this focused, practical session, learn the theory behind the technique and practical ways to maximize your results from the meetings from someone who has used standup meetings for 25 years and who has helped many organizations overcome initial problems incorporating the technique. Learn how to avoid common problems such as lack of participation or engagement, people feeling the meetings are a waste of time, meetings turning into management status reporting sessions, meetings dragging on and on, and so much more. Learn hard-learned secrets that experts use to turn around teams that struggle adopting standup meetings.
