3. What You Need
This is a simple way of making sure that any discussions stay on the
subject, and any tangents are quickly isolated and 'postponed'.
All you need is:
• Post It Notes
• A pen
• A whiteboard / paper attached to wall or something similar.
On the whiteboard / paper, draw a square box and label it 'Car Park'.
This will become a space where you can 'park' ideas, suggestions,
questions or feedback that are not directly associated with the topic.

4. The Technique
The scrum master (or even a team member, meeting
facilitator) has the right to say "This is off topic, lets
car park this and take it off-line".
You then write the topic on a post it note and stick it in
the car park for later discussion.
At the end of the daily stand up / agile meeting,
you can then quickly review the board; you might
find that some questions have already been
answered, and topics that involve certain people
can then commence.

5. Thank you!
