Async vs Sync standups
What are stand ups?
Stand-ups are timeboxed meetings where attendees generally participate while standing (hence the name!). Standups are used to deliver daily updates on a week's or sprint’s tasks to the entire team. The daily nature of stand-ups allow participants to understand how tasks are progressing in the team, who needs help, and how to coordinate the efforts of the team to align and complete tasks successfully. The structure of the meetings encourages follow-ups and tries to identify issues and blockers before their impact reaches a larger scale.
