How do you approach Daily Scrums with distributed teams?
Daily Scrums for Developers whose members are distributed between different offices or working remotely are not much different to Daily Scrums for Developers whose members are co-located. The exception is that distributed teams sharing board activity may require video conferencing when working with offline boards that mirror each other.
If a Scrum Team is using online task management or planning software like JIRA27, the team’s boards can be online and updates can take place on-screen. This generally makes it easy for members of a distributed team to follow board activity. With online boards in place, a Zoom or Google Hangouts call will likely be enough for a distributed team to have their Daily Scrum.
Alternatively, the Developers may try an asynchronous Daily Scrum by utilizing messenger software like Slack. It is the prerogative of the Developers to decide on the best way of handling their Daily Scrum event.
