More Benefits of Daily Check-ins

As you might know, I’m a big fan of daily check-ins. After spending some more time doing them (we’ve been doing them for 16 months with the leadership team), I’ve realized there are several additional benefits I didn’t consider before. Here are some more benefits that come to mind:

  • Having everyone stand up and talk in front of their colleagues gets the energy level up
  • Since it is at the start of the day, everyone says hello or good morning, helping promote the team camaraderie
  • As you’ve already talked with your team that morning, if an issue comes up later in the day related to one of your priorities, it doesn’t take as much time to get them up to speed on something you need help with

I highly recommend doing daily check-ins across your company.
