If there's one meeting in all of the Scrum framework that I look at and think causes the most consternation, the more problems,
most headaches, I think I'd have to say it's the Daily Scum.
How can that be the case?
It's only a 15-minute meeting.
When we have something like sprint planning that lasts up to eight hours for a month long sprint, how can this little 15 minute meeting be the source of
so many problems?
Well, for one, it's the only event in Scrum that happens every day.
So just like if you put a card in a bicycle wheel, that noise happens over and over again, squeaky wheel kind of problem.
Also, I think the reason it's the most problematic is that it is the one that is most misunderstood.
So I hope you'll join me in this short little series where I want to describe to you some of my experiences with a daily scrum and we'll talk about some
possible solutions and ways to improve your daily scums.
