One example of an agile team development practice is “daily stand-up meetings” or “daily scrums”.
In this practice, the members of a software development team gather together for a brief meeting each day to discuss their progress and plans. The purpose of these daily meetings is to keep everyone on the same page regarding project status, identify any obstacles that may be impeding progress, and ensure that all tasks are being completed in accordance with established timelines.
During these short (usually 15 minutes) standing meetings, each member answers three questions:
What did you accomplish yesterday?
What do you plan to work on today?
Are there any impediments blocking your progress?
By answering these questions every day as part of the Agile methodology’s iterative approach towards product delivery helps teams stay focused while also promoting transparency among its members about what they’re working on at present time which ultimately leads them toward achieving common goals more efficiently.
