"Except they have no way of recording the opportunity cost" This is a very good point. I have to think about it more. Still, as an independent consultant, I have seen some teams who get close to 0 value from their dailies (while others got tremendous value). And just trying to change some small things about the dailies will probably lead to no results. "One person being the driving force behind making something happen doesn't imply that all the benefit accrues to them at all." Well, if nobody goes to the daily just because a single person is missing, you have a problem. Right? Even if that problem is only that the others do not recognize the value they are getting...
