The daily stand-up is for sharing the daily status among all the MEMBERS of an agile team. This forum helps to address and mitigate PROBLEMS that the members face. It is a mandatory practice regardless of whether the teams are collocated or not. 

What is Daily Stand-up? 

• The daily stand-up is held among all team members and is roughly for 15 minutes. 
• Each member has to answer three important questions 
  • What did I do yesterday? 
  • What will I do today? 
  • Any IMPEDIMENT I am facing and any solutions. 
• The daily stand-up is for status update only not for team discussions. Members should schedule meetings at a different time if they need to discuss issues.
