Meetings

Weekly​

Goals​

The main goal of weekly meetings is to align the company’s vision with the team and the work we need to do to reach it in the next 7 days. We also use it to discuss if someone is blocked and needs some help.

At the end of the meeting, everyone can answer the questions:

  • What are the desired long-term results of our company's efforts?
  • What do I need to do this week to achieve these results?
  • If I’m blocked, do I expose it clearly to the team, and do I have someone to support me?

Duration​

Maximum of 25 minutes. We don’t need more than this time to align the vision and the weekly work priorities.

Don’ts​

We don’t use this meeting to:

  • Discuss specific details of implementation. Each team member should schedule different appointments with their respective leads to discuss specific domain details.
  • Discuss blocking issues. The blocked person will discuss it with the leads in another meeting.
  • Status report. We don’t need to do status reports because the Kanban boards already provide them.
