In my case what made the difference was holding the meeting without any management in it.
To be fair to the agile movement, self-orgainizing teams and the value of individuals are all themes expressed quite clearly.
Maybe you could try a small pilot and see where it goes.
- bradknowles 7y agoIMO, no standup should have anyone attend that is not a direct member of the one specific team in question. At least, not without really good reason. So, the project manager/Scrum Master for the team, plus the technical members of the team. That's it. You can have guest attendees, if there is a good reason. You can have temporary members, if they're working with the team for a short period of time. But the basic rule should be just the engineers plus their project manager/scrum master. And no one should be in multiple standups without a really good reason. Maybe the PMs or Scrum Masters should be in a Scrum of Scrums, but that's about it.

Format should cut off bad management and time-sinks too. Harder to contain democratization (the opposite of every other suggested model!).
