A daily standup, also called a daily scrum or daily stand-up meeting, is a short meeting that happens every day. It is often used in agile project management methods. The goal of the daily standup is to give team members a chance to quickly check in with each other, talk about how things have been going since the last meeting, and make plans for the next day.
During a typical daily standup, team members get together, often standing up to keep the meeting short and focused, and take turns answering three questions:
What have I done since the last time we met?
What am I going to do today?
Are there any problems that are making it hard for me to move forward?
By answering these questions, team members can get a quick idea of what everyone else is working on, find any possible problems or dependencies, and better coordinate their work. The daily standup also gives the team a chance to go over their plans and change them if they need to based on new information or a shift in priorities.
The team’s scrum master or project manager usually runs the daily standup, which usually lasts between 15 and 30 minutes. It is meant to be a quick, casual, and cooperative meeting that helps the team stay on the same page and move forward quickly.
