There&#x27;s no reason you need to get everybody in the same physical place at the same time for this.  If you are just giving status updates, team chat is a perfectly viable option.<p>I know I personally can&#x27;t get started on things right away in the morning because of the psychic weight standups carry. I can&#x27;t get focused because in the back of my mind I know I&#x27;m going to get interrupted soon for a meeting that mostly has little relevance to me.
