Excellent post, Rosa! This resonates with me very much. Lisa has a similar coverage of "huddles" in her "Focus Like a Laser Beam" book and I think it is something I haven't used, but should have been, for quite a long time.

In addition to getting the "we" feel back into work, it gives a way to stop the frenetic pace of the day and get out of the tyranny of the urgent.

Besides not using huddles enough, the other thing I have to guard against is leaving out people in the huddles. It's never intentional, but sometimes I realize I've just had a huddle and forgotten to pull in someone who really should have been involved.

I think practice will make me better at this.

Mahalo for weighing in on this Dwayne, for your honesty is so wonderful! The huddles-which-are-not-meetings which Lisa writes of, do connect really well with the "practice" of which you speak, and you've subtly coached us here... we can all use more practice! Our huddles are about connection, something everyone can use more of, and under the guise of communicating information we can nurture great working relationships with each other.
