Coordinate, inspect, improve
At a daily stand-up, team members plan today’s work, coordinate help, and raise blockers. It is a short team conversation, not a status report to a manager.
At a review, the team and stakeholders examine what was built, gather feedback, and discuss what to do next. A demo may be part of it.
In a retrospective, the team examines how it worked and chooses an improvement to try.
Make the meetings useful
The format can vary, but each meeting needs an outcome: a plan for the day, feedback on the product, or an improvement to try. People need room to raise problems openly.
