team huddles

Players gather closely

Team huddles are brief, informal meetings where a group gathers to share information, coordinate tasks, or build morale.

The term borrows from sports, where players cluster to discuss strategy: We start each morning with a ten-minute team huddle.

In workplace settings, huddles are typically standing meetings meant to be quick and focused rather than extended discussions.
