Comments on: 10 Reasons We Have Daily Stand Up Meetings http://www.pmhut.com/10-reasons-we-have-daily-stand-up-meetings Thu, 17 May 2012 02:25:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: Annemarie http://www.pmhut.com/10-reasons-we-have-daily-stand-up-meetings/comment-page-1#comment-78616 Annemarie Thu, 08 Mar 2012 03:32:32 +0000 http://www.pmhut.com/?p=7521#comment-78616 I recently interviewed for a career advisor position at a local technical college where they have up to three standups a day, one of which was at around 11:00a.m. I had never heard of such a concept before, and found it to be too structured and disruptive. I can understand why it is important to communicate with the rest of the team, but three standups a day....I think that's a bit much and smacks of micromanagement to me. What if an employee is on an important phone call, or is in a meeting with a student? I could never work in such an environment....I would feel smothered.

Our problem with communication in the team is legendary. We have recently proposed a very similar format to the stand-up. I am so happy to have read this page. So much time is wasted ( by us ) in duplication, doubling up, loss of currency, burning of new human resources.. and all the rest of it. Daily opportunity to breathe as a group and hear the Language of your Endeavor will save far more time and prevent more ill-feeling than any amount of time spent on anything else. i work as a registered nurse delivering aged care while supervising enrolled nurses and carers.

However, it has been turned out that stand-up talk on a daily basis is not always necessary. Manager or team leader should only do this when it is really necessary even if it only takes 5 minutes or longer each time. Do not give a chance to daily meeting to become a routine that people hate most of the time. The idea of stand-up meeting is excellent as I agree most of the points in this post.

All too frequently, we'll put something on the agenda of our 2-hour bi-weekly staff meeting, and then later realize that we should've discussed the topic long before two weeks went by. Having a brief, daily meeting would promote information sharing within the team much more efficiently and effectively. Thanks for the great post! I love the third point of this post.
