Ask Slashdot: Are Daily Stand-Up Meetings More Productive?

Posted by Soulskill on from the leveling-up-your-agility dept.

__roo writes "The Wall Street Journal reports that an increasing number of companies are replacing traditional meetings with daily stand-ups. The article points out that stand-up meetings date back to at least World War I, and that in some place, late employees 'sometimes must sing a song like "I'm a Little Teapot," do a lap around the office building or pay a small fine.' Do Slashdot readers feel that stand-up meetings are useful? Do they make a difference? Are they a gimmick?"

    Be careful, it could just be that you fail the litmus test.
