9 Agile Meeting Agenda Templates to Energize your Team
Templates to ensure your agile teams work effectively to deliver requirements, plans, results and evaluate change quickly.
The Scrum framework involves working in shorter time frames, called sprints or scrums, which provides time to adjust and to be more effective long-term.
A sprint or a scrum uses sets of intervals, where your team allocates a specific amount of time to each task. At the end of each scrum, everyone takes the time to evaluate their output.
Agile meetings (sprints, scrums, backlog grooming sessions, and sprint retrospectives) are an essential part of this framework.
Here are 8 different meeting agenda templates created by the Fellow team to lay out an agenda that will help your team better prepare for the sprint:

- Agile Project Kick-Off Meeting Template
- Effective Daily Standup Meeting Template
- Weekly Scrum Meeting Template
