**Date:** {{ YYYY-MM-DD }}
**Time-box:** 15 minutes. No exceptions.
**Standing:** literally — sit down and the meeting always runs long.

## Format

Each person answers, in order, three questions. **No replies, no debate, no problem-solving.** Side conversations after.

1. What did I finish since the last standup?
2. What will I work on next?
3. What is blocking me, or is likely to block me?

## Round table

| Person | Done | Next | Blockers |
|---|---|---|---|
|   |   |   |   |
|   |   |   |   |
|   |   |   |   |

## Sprint goal check (30 seconds)

> Sprint goal: ___________________________

On track? **Yes / No / At risk**

If "at risk", who needs to talk after standup?
