> my daily standup is at 9:30AM. I typically join the standup on my phone, and make coffee and have a snack. Our standup runs 30-45mins due to how it’s managed and doesn’t provide much value to me
Ugh, I feel you on that. (tho I don't agree with the monitoring part, there's no need for it)
I just realized that I haven't had these silly daily standups for nearly a year now, since changing companies. And guess what? My team is the most productive team I ever worked in. I provide a weekly written update on the project I'm on for leadership to read. We had a weekly 15mins standup for a while when we needed a very tight loop between people on the project as one of the releases was coming up, then scrapped it when things went back to normal.
I don't miss the daily standups and scrummasters at all.
