replythere should be only 3 regular meetings in an agile engineering team
- weekly iteration planning (1-2 hours max)
- daily standup (15 mins max)
- weekly demo & retro (1-2 hours max)
replyliterally everything else is work off the kanban board or backlog.
in my teams everyone was told to decline all meetings unless it explicitly led to the completion of a weekly planned story/task. this way all meetings for the team have a clear agenda and end in mind.
for mandatory external meetings & running interference with external parties, there are ways to insulate the majority of the team from that.
Is that three kinds of regular meetings? Because I count 8 meetings (and four kinds, as I don't think I've ever had demo and retro combined due to different groups of people being in both).
