I have searched and can't seem to find what I'm looking for.  I'm sure I'm just not using the right terms.  Does anyone have a script of an example daily scrum?  We are having several issues with our scrum and some team members are wanting to do away with it or change it to a twice a week thing.  I'm wanting to fix the problems and I think sharing an example of a proper scrum with them would help.  I've made up examples for different things, but I think it would have more impact reading through from start to finish.
 
Thanks,

How do you conduct your daily Scrum meetings? And, what are your issues? For what its worth here is a script, if that helps. Daily Scrum meetings * During the...

I meant more of a script as in a role play example. Everyone on the team has read the questions several times, it's just some feel like "What have I done...

Minimal daily scrums are that simple that concrete script won't probably be of much help. What you are asking for is probably more about gestures, looks, tone...

Scot, your script sounds like a command-and-contro scenario in which the ScrumMaster functions like a traditional PM. The problem that *may* occur with this...

Dave, Thanks, you're dead right. It does sound just like C&C reporting. I slept on it and realized our daily scrums do have that simple script, but there's a...

I agree with the other comment about this sounding too C&C. The Scrummaster should kick off the daily scrum by just saying something like, "Good morning! I'm...

It's called a 'daily standup', not a daily scrum. That might help when you google. ... -- I rather like the idea of being thought of as a shit - a common...
