Ask HN: Have you been in a team that did “daily standups” asynchronously?
In the past, all of my teams have had daily-standup meetings. Ie, recurring meetings scheduled for a specific time, when everyone would join the meeting (either physically or virtually) and give their updates
In an attempt to reduce people's meeting load and avoid interruptions, we're considering doing asynchronous slack standups instead. Ie, everyone posts their daily-update on slack at the start of their workday (no specific time). People can then follow up either on slack, or in-person, or offline, regarding any of the updates that others have posted.
Has anyone had experience with doing similar asynchronous daily updates, as an alternative to daily standup meetings? If so, how did it go?
