Ready-made script
The standup that stays short
Three sections, one of them must-cover. Skip the last one on purpose and watch Tellie notice.
This is what your recipient sees.
The Monday standup
What shipped
Key phrase:what shipped
Only the things a customer can actually touch. If it is not in front of someone outside this room, it did not ship, it moved.
What is stuck
Say any one of:what is stuckblocked on
Two phrases, separated by a comma. Saying either one covers this section, which is how you write an anchor for a point you might phrase either way.
What I need from you
must coverKey phrase:what I need from you
This is the section everyone runs out of time for, so it is marked must-cover. Say it out loud before the call ends.
Nothing happened? Then Tellie is not on this Mac yet. It is a free download, and this script will open straight into it once it is.
