Daily stands ups are the quickest way to waste your time.Even if can limit the stand up to 5 to 10 minutes, a study from the University of California Irvine revealed that it takes an average of 23 minutes and 15 seconds to get back to the task at hand. That means you lose half an hour of work from each of your team members each day, 20 hours a month.
I trust my team to keep me updated if a ticket takes longer than expected. If it does, I can arrange a meeting with the required developers to discuss a way forward.
Well this is kind of a silly metric to validate the efficacy of standups. What you want to look at instead is given 2 teams, one with standups and one without, which one achieves their goals more often and has higher morale.
