Daily Standup Template
15-minute stand-up structure that keeps the team aligned without becoming a status meeting.
When to use this
Three rounds, one minute per person per round. The chair times it. Anything that needs more than a minute becomes a separate side-conversation after the call.
What’s included
- Round 1 — What I did yesterday
- Round 2 — What I'm doing today
- Round 3 — Blockers and asks
- After the stand-up
What to customise before you use it
- Replace Team with your real meeting, project, or stakeholder details.
- Replace Date with your real meeting, project, or stakeholder details.
- Replace Name with your real meeting, project, or stakeholder details.
- Replace Blocker / who can clear it with your real meeting, project, or stakeholder details.
- Replace Ask of a teammate with your real meeting, project, or stakeholder details.
- Replace topic — who needs to talk to whom with your real meeting, project, or stakeholder details.
