Meeting Rules for Daily Stand-Up / Daily Scrum

For the team:

1. Arrive on time or early.
   
2. Be ready to say what you did yesterday and what you plan to do today.
   
3. Keep your report specific, precise and short in order to help the meeting end within 15 minutes.
   
4. Listen to other team member's status in case it might relate to your tasks or impact you.
   
5. Don't interrupt people when they are talking.
   
6. Don't agree to decisions or action you don't understand. Ask questions and insist on answers when you need clarification.
   
7. Note the tasks or action items you volunteer for.
   
8. If you raise an issue or question that can't be resolved in a minute, ask to discuss with the parties involved after the meeting.
   
9. For those calling in, be sure to start your report with "This is [your name]."
