To me the “3 questions” of Scrum are by far the worst well-formulated of all the framework.
To me it should be:
- PBI (Product Backlog Item) driven and for each PBI:
* who made any progress on this story and what are the next steps for it ?

Don’t ask if there are blockers… it just tells the people that you think they are too dumb to tell if they are blocked.

One particularly good advice is to have someone from the development team responsible for the story progression, so that at least 1 person cares. It shouldn’t be necessary, that’s for sure, but in large teams (6+) responsibility gets so diffuse that you could work for years without anyone feeling the need to be empowered (it’s easier to blend in a large group).
