A guide to short daily huddles: agenda, length, who leads and how to include an audio or video message.

Keep the agenda fixed.

Safety, yesterday, today and one thing to watch. Five to ten minutes at most.

Rotate the lead.

Giving different people the lead builds ownership.

Add a message from above.

A short audio or video note from a leader can start the huddle with the same message everywhere.
