Which actions support accessibility in stand-ups for diverse teams?

• A. Use jargon and no summaries.
• B. Clear language, time zone considerations, written summaries, remote participation.
• C. In-person only.
• D. No schedule.

Answer: (B)

Accessibility in stand-ups for diverse teams relies on clear, inclusive communication and flexible participation. Clear language helps everyone understand updates quickly, including non-native speakers and people using assistive technologies. Time zone considerations ensure teammates in different regions can participate without undue burden. Written summaries provide an accessible record for those who can’t attend live or prefer to review updates later. Remote participation supports inclusion for those who are distributed, traveling, or who have mobility or other constraints.

Using jargon and no summaries makes the update hard to grasp for many participants and leaves no reliable written record. An in-person-only format excludes remote teammates and those unable to attend onsite. No schedule creates chaos and makes it hard for people to plan their work or contribute consistently. Together, these practices create a stand-up that truly supports a diverse, reachable team.
