Why we stopped doing the morning call
Swapping a 15-minute call for a two-minute written check-in, and what we learned along the way.
Our team spans four time zones. The morning call was someone’s evening and someone else’s very early start, so we tried something simpler: write it down.
Three prompts, every day
Each person answers the same three questions:
- What moved since yesterday?
- What’s next?
- Is anything in the way?
That’s it. Most answers fit in a few lines.
What changed
People read updates when their day starts instead of waiting for a call. Blockers get noticed earlier because they’re written down and pinned, not mentioned in passing.
