I have been working as a software developer for more than a decade. Recently I took a new job where I have to manage a remote team of 5 developers.
We have a "stand up" conference call every day at 5pm my time, 10 am their time. (I am the team lead/manager and will be the scrum master as well)
I have some questions:
- how to call the meeting? "stand up?", "huddle?", other?
- I have worked in some places where before the scrum meeting the scrum master touches on latest news (political, technology, etc). Should I do the same?
- should I be the first or last to talk in the status presentation?
- what other points should I cover?
- are there any books on this subject?
Cheers!
