vendingmachine commented on the word stand-up meeting
Stand-up meetings are part of a fast-moving tech culture in which sitting has become synonymous with sloth. The object is to eliminate long-winded confabs where participants pontificate, play games on their cellphones or tune out.
Holding meetings standing up isn't new. Some military leaders did it during World War I.
Holding stand-up meetings before lunch also speeds things up.
