Async Collaboration
Every other day
We use geekbot integrated with Slack for our every-other-day async standup to make our current work and upcoming work more visible.
Weekly
Given the distributed nature of our team members, our “team meetings” consist of collaborating async through a Google Doc Agenda (internal). Slackbot will remind the team weekly to review the agenda and encourage us to collaborate through the agenda.
Monthly
We use a GitLab issue in the (internal) async retrospectives project for our monthly retrospective. The purpose of the monthly retrospective issue is to collaborate async and reflect on how the milestone went, in terms of:
- what went well
- what didn’t go so well
- what we can do improve upon
- what praise we have for one another.
Instead of waiting until the end of the milestone to add items to the retrospective issue, we encourage team members to add comments throughout the month. The issue’s due dates and Slackbot reminders serve as reminders to contribute feedback to our issue prior to closing.
