This is great information, especially now with remote working!

In the company I work for, we do weekly stand-up meetings where all the team shares briefly what they are working on and share any challenges they might be going through. This practice keeps us focused and connected, which is quite important nowadays.

In the Army I’ve always had a morning “stand-up” with my staff. It’s an opportunity for me to put out some quick guidance, and then each of my deputies has an opportunity to identify any issues or key events. The main ground rule is that we actually stand (hence the name), and it is kept brief. No more than 5-10 minutes.

In reply to Fred Schrader. Thanks so much, Fred. It's always fun to hear differences in practices and what they're called in various parts of the world. Where are you based? And, I'm curious, what would you call it?

Haha, I actually had to idea that this kind of get-together is called a “huddle”. Might be because I’m not from the US, but the word was completely new to me. 🙂

Anyway, thanks for the great list!
