Take action afterward
Developers talk to eachother
Chickens are optional
Proper equipment for offsite folks, e.g. conference lines that work
Report to Leader
Not Prepared
Only Discussion at Standup
Too Early, Too Big, ShoeGazers
Standup Used as a design session, Sitting Down
Standup as a separate room from the team room, Electronics being used
Standup Starts the Day, No impediments recorded, Ratholing
Use a token, somethign fluffy that you can throw to the next person when it is their turn Bring a different token each sprint Spin the Marker to decide who goes first Offer appreciations at the beginning of a meeting. <Name of Person>, I appreciate you for <this>. Celebrate progress (Woohoos!), burndowns, impediments removed, etc Offer Food, coffee: better if it is not routine but a special thing Random stuff is helpful (though switching the time of standup is generally not helpful, it's confusing) Ask "How are you feeling?" Tell a story, a personal anecdote to start the meeting When someone leaves for a few days and comes back, tell them to bring back a tacky toy Whoever speaks first says thank you after the meeting Welcome people to standup Use "speed dating method" for impediments. Ask who has an impediment and then who can help them Bring a joke to standup (look up on internet) Create a non-human enemy (Someone mentioned a vista machine that was the enemy on the project) Ask, "how are we doing this morning?"
