Ours used to be similar, then we were assigned a scrum master to act as a mentor (despite most of us working together for more than a decade, we are fairly new to agile). He made stand ups much more regimented. All the chit chat is completely gone. I’m now realizing that standup was the only time of the day that my coworkers and I connected about anything not strictly work related. It does feel like we have lost out on something.
- wonderwonder 5y agoyou should try virtual happy hours with the team. once every couple weeks, generally just an hour or just long enough to finish a beer. If the group is kept small it can be a pretty good team builder as long as an effort is made to include everyone in the conversation. Felt forced in the beginning but generally most teams have at least one person that can get and keep the chat going. Still keep it going now with people I used to work with even though we all went our separate ways.
- midrus 5y agoYeah, scrum masters. Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse.
