Scrum is an agile framework that teams use to produce products faster by breaking large development projects into smaller pieces that can be completed in short timeframes. A Scrum Meeting is a catch-all term that can describe different types of meetings held by Scrum teams. Scrum meetings are an essential part of putting agile into practice, and they provide transparency and regular communication with the team.

Here are the most common types of Scrum meetings:

• Daily Scrum: Also called the standup, it is a short daily meeting designed to let the team plan out its work for the day and identify any obstacles that could impact that work. Most teams hold these meetings in the morning and limit them to 10 or 15 minutes. They are sometimes called standups because many teams hold them standing up to keep them short and focused.

• Sprint Planning: It is a team meeting held before the next agile sprint. The team reviews its backlog during sprint planning and decides what items to prioritize for the next sprint. Scrum teams work under ... .

• Sprint Review: At the end of each sprint, the team will demonstrate the current product iteration and discuss what has been achieved during the sprint.

• Sprint Retrospective: This meeting is held after the Sprint Review and before the next Sprint Planning. The team reflects on the previous sprint and identifies what went well, what didnt go well, and what can be improved in the next sprint.

Most Scrum meetings, including the ones mentioned above, should include the entire Scrum team. For most companies, the team includes the Scrum master, product owner, and development team. Scrum meetings provide the team with an opportunity to realign and assess how well the project is running. During these meetings, any opportunities to improve, any reasons the team needs to pivot, and any issues that need fixing can be raised, allowing the team to open up meaningful discussions.
