Stand-up meetings#

Daily stand-up meetings help better communication between team members. In a remote team it is especially important to chart who is working on which project and what task.

• we meet on Google Meet (link is pinned in #general Slack channel) at 10:00 (RO) every day (Monday to Friday)
• to motivate people not to be late, the person who joined the latest, opens the meeting
• succinctly tell us what you worked on last workday, what you’re planning on doing today and if you have any blockers
• if you have a blocker and can not continue work, this is the best time to ask for help
• everybody’s time is precious, so try not to wander and discuss detailed questions about certain projects in private conversations

Drum-roll meetings#

• every Monday stand-up is a special meeting, called a drum-roll meeting
• instead of telling us what you worked on last workday and what you’re planning on working today, we concentrate on our current deadlines
• list all the deadlines for your current projects
• if any of your current projects doesn’t have a deadline, treat it as a red flag and discuss it with PM
• if you have blockers, mention them at the end of the drum-roll meeting
