Finance company uses daily scrum

In an article on BlackRock, the biggest asset manager in the world with $3 trillion under management, it was revealed that one of their management techniques for keeping the company in-sync and feeling "small" is to have a mandatory, daily morning meeting at 8am. Everyone involved gives short one-minute presentations seemingly on whatever they are working on. The article doesn't get into specifics about the meeting, but it sounds very similar to a daily scrum. Check out the article in Fortune.
