Which of the following is NOT a recommended practice in CSA Stand Ups?

Stand-ups should be a collaborative check-in focused on blockers, progress, and what’s coming next. The daily meeting is about synchronizing the team, surfacing obstacles, and aligning on priorities for the day, while also briefly reviewing what was completed yesterday and what is planned for today with any blockers noted. This keeps communication concise, transparent, and action-oriented, helping the team move work forward efficiently. Blaming others when delays occur undermines psychological safety and trust, which are essential for open reporting of blockers and honest discussion of obstacles. It tends to push issues underground and slows resolution. The goal of a stand-up is to identify what’s blocked and decide how to remove the blockage, not to assign fault. When delays happen, focus on the blockers, discuss what’s needed to unblock them, and assign concrete next steps to restore momentum.
