Hope it does not fall into self-promotion, but I am happy to host a weekly standup for everyone in the community to share what are they plans for the week, and if somewhere the community might help.
Here is a proposed format: 1) Name of CO 2) 1 line description 3) Goal o the week (free form 1-3 most important things to accomplish) 4) Ask to the community.
For those not familiar, could you explain what a “weekly standup” is?
Also, what kinds of members (eg founders, startups, entrepreneurs?) would benefit?
Last, I’m not sure how the discussion threading will stack up here (maybe we re-use the same post and delete the comments each week), but there’s only one way to find out!
Thanks for the apprival Ian! Yes, so generally a standup helps cross-functional teams works better and tap into the experience and knowledge of each individual team member. For example I'm designer and face a UX problem, so I share it with the whole team and event someone in engineering might give opinion, help or point to right direction. It also gives a birds-eye view of what is everyone up to in clear, concise and structured ways. Also very good to keep track of things and helps to stop procrastinating.
I think being strict on format is important, but we can vote and suggest changes to it, vs everyone just writing how they like.
as of threads, I think I will just repost weekly, everyone put themselves into comments as a new comment(poster), and those(viewers) willing to engage with a particular co/person can respond under that particular comment.
I think this is a brilliant idea. I would even recommend that, as a group, each week focussing on communicating and commenting on each other's social media business accounts and having dialogue via those platforms to boost engagement and exposure

I can start the first thread on Monday.
Thoughts?
Hi Alex, that’s an interesting idea!

Down to try :)
