Software Process And Measurement Cast

In SPaMCAST 561 we discuss making the Daily Scrum work for the mission it was intended.  When a Daily Scrum or daily stand-up is not used for micro-planning and collaborating to achieve the team’s goal, they are occurring for a reason.  Those meetings are scratching some other itch than planning, an itch that however unagile is often defended. When the goal of a daily meeting is something other than group planning there are more efficient and less expensive approaches even for highly agile teams to address status and have a social event. Also in this podcast, Susan Parente brings us her Not A Scrumdamentalist column.  Susan discusses the product owner's role and why it is important.   Susan’s LinkedIn Profile  linkedin.com/in/susanparente Websites techriskmanager.com  (Technical Risk Management) s3-tec.com  (Company Website) Email Address Parente@s3-tec.com Twitter TechRiskManager Re-Read Saturday News I took a day off from our re-read of Thinking, Fast and Slow to spend the day at a pickle festival.
