My team kept a Webex room open at the start of every morning for just turning up and chatting in; it would generally stay open in the background until everyone had left for meetings. It certainly worked well for us. Sometimes people just worked silently through it, but usually there was lots of chat.
- ineptech 4y agoWe don't have something like this (except for the bullshitting that usually occurs in the last few minutes of standup) but I'm thinking we should try it.
