Yes to communicating with each other and knowing what you're working on, no to doing it every morning. Once a week, every two weeks, or once a month is fine. Any integral communication that can't be handled by the recurring meeting, can be handled ad-hoc as you go.
But people who have only done capital A agile and scrum are so buried in the philosophy that they don't understand that there are far better ways to do things.
- rerdavies 2y agoI'm not sure how that's supposed works if most team members are burning through 14 tasks or 10 tasks or 5 tasks in a two week period. If your tasks are two week chunks, then you're doing something else completely different. Over a 40 year career I've done all kinds of methodologies. If you understand that there are far better ways to do things, I'm all ears. The big advantage to agile/scrum methodologies in my opinion: dramatically improved predictability. Total elimination of drama. Efficient management of expectations outside of the development group. Never having to do a death march ever again.
- rvdginste 2y agoOk, I agree, if there is enough (ad-hoc) communication within the team, you don’t need those meetings every day.
