The Daily Scrum Meeting

http://www.mountaingoatsoftware.com/scrum/daily-scrum On each day of a sprint, the team holds daily meetings (“the daily scrum”). Meetings are typically held in the same location and at the same time each day. Ideally the daily scrums are held in the morning as they help set the context for the coming day's work. Daily scrums are strictly timeboxed to fifteen minutes.

7 Tips for Improving the Daily Scrum | Agile Software Development

Daily Scrum also known as daily standup meeting is an important element of the Scrum process. The structure of the meeting is quite rigid and fixed. Everybody has to stand up, meeting should take no longer, than 15 minutes and everybody should answer three questions: "What did you do since the last meeting?", "What are you going to do until the next meeting?", "What impedes you from being more productive?". The purpose of this rigidness is for making sure that daily Scrum is to help team members synchronize between themselves, not to solve problems.

Scrum (development) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Scrum is an iterative and incremental agile software development method for managing software projects and product or application development. [ edit ] History In 1986, Hirotaka Takeuchi and Ikujiro Nonaka described a new approach to commercial product development that would increase speed and flexibility, based on case studies from manufacturing firms in the automotive, photocopier and printer industries. [ 1 ] They called this the holistic or rugby approach , as the whole process is performed by one cross-functional team across multiple overlapping phases, where the team "tries to go the distance as a unit, passing the ball back and forth". [ 1 ] In 1991, DeGrace and Stahl first referred to this as the scrum . [ 2 ] In rugby, a scrum refers to the manner of restarting the game after a minor infraction. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development)
Why should I listen to what “A” is working on - You guys are the same team working on same project or team goals, and you would like to know if something A is doing is useful to you or you would be able to help/ provide insight to A. If team members are still not convinced, the process coaches should find out why the team does not have a “shared committment and a vision”. When do I discuss the problem holding me up - Raise a hand and ask concerned people to stay back after daily stand up and discuss it then OR come up with an alternative plan that does not disrupt the flow of above agenda and make daily stand up more than 15 minute Who starts first - No rule set. The team can decide.

http://www.mountaingoatsoftware.com/ Agile is an umbrella term used to describe a general approach to software development. Though there are many agile incarnations, all agile processes, including Scrum emphasize teamwork, frequent deliveries of working software, close customer collaboration, and the ability to respond quickly to change.
