Effective Daily Project Management Update Meetings

June 12, 2017 by Mark Donais


Effective Daily Project Management Update Meetings 

You probably perform a project management update meeting or SCRUM on a daily basis, typically in the morning before everyone gets going. If you or your team are struggling with your meeting then here are some suggestions for you that should make your meeting fun, energetic, and valuable.

Why not consider it a warm-up to a daily workout? What would you do to warm up? Stretch muscles, get warm, get pumped up, and GET EXCITED! All of these things are part of the journey toward a great workout.

If you get the team properly warmed up, just like a body, you will have a more effective, enjoyable, pain-free work day. When performing a workout you’re preparing the body for the exertions ahead in a safe and responsible manner. When warming up the team you are focusing them on business objectives, engaging them, and exciting them.

How do we want to warm up our team every day?

We want to have them feeling ready to work, ready to achieve particular goals and objectives we want them to feel part of the team and we want an invigorated workplace. To conduct the project warm-up you need to establish some rules:

It’s a warm-up, not a workout.

Let’s not turn this warm-up session into a major workout. If we jump right into the workout without warming up we know we’ll have some pain later and the likelihood of sustaining our workouts diminishes. To achieve our warm-up goals we’ll keep it light, keep it fast, and keep it short.

Keep your eyes on the prize.

Make sure that your warm-up is focusing your abdominal muscles you focus your warm-up around the abdominal muscles and those muscles that support the abdominal area. You’re not going to be focused on legs arms or other subsystems of the body you will however also warm up the brain.

Use the SCRUM stand-up rules to execute the meeting.

Now let’s get some energy happening in our work and let’s keep it energized. See how this can be accomplished with a TeamHeadquarters demonstration.
