Question
Referencing the capacity plan during stand-up meetings has several benefits in terms of meeting sprint goals. Firstly, it provides a clear view of the team's total capacity, allowing managers and Scrum Masters to ensure that the sprint backlog aligns with the actual time and energy the team can realistically commit. This helps in preventing over-commitment. Secondly, it helps teams identify whether they are on track, if adjustments are needed, and if any additional support is required to meet sprint goals. This promotes a more predictable delivery cadence.
