Context: Leadership has been extensively studied in management and agile software development; however, prior research predominantly focuses on formal roles and predefined leadership models, offering limited insight into how leadership is…
Forming members of an organization into coherent groups or communities is an important issue in any large-scale software engineering endeavour, especially so in agile software development teams which rely heavily on self-organisation and…
The values of software organizations are crucial for achieving high performance; in particular, agile development approaches emphasize their importance. Researchers have thus far often assumed that a specific set of values, compatible with…
Context: Within agile transformations, there are a lot of different challenges coming up. One very important but less considered and treated in research are cultural challenges. Although research shows that cultural clashes and general…
Hackathons are events in which diverse teams work together to explore, and develop solutions, software or even ideas. Hackathons have been recognized not only as public events for hacking, but also as a corporate mechanism for innovation.…
There have been recent calls for research on the human side of software engineering and its impact on various factors such as productivity, developer happiness and project success. An analysis of which challenges in software engineering…
The need for teaching realistic software development in project courses has increased in a global scale. It has always been challenges in cooperating fast-changing software technologies, development methodologies and teamwork. Moreover,…
Many recent research studies have focused on the well-being of software development team members, as this aspect may be critical not only for productivity and performance at work but also for the physical health and personal life of…
Evidence in the literature from several business sectors shows that exploratory and exploitative innovation strategies are complementarily important for competitiveness. Our empirical findings reinforced those evidences in the context of…
The Agile Manifesto describes that the most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is through face-to-face conversation. However that is not always possible when teams are working in a…
Meetings are typically considered to be the fuel of an organization's productivity -- a place where employees discuss ideas and make collective decisions. However, it is no secret that meetings are also often perceived as wasteful vacuums,…
Agile methods have transformed the way software is developed, emphasizing active end-user involvement, tolerance to change, and evolutionary delivery of products. The first special issue on agile development described the methods as…
The purpose of this paper is to review research on attitudes and social norms and connect it to the agile software development context. Furthermore, I propose additional theories from social psychology (mainly the theory of planned behavior…
A number of methods for large-scale agile development have recently been suggested. Much of the advice in agile methods focuses on teamwork. Prior research has established that teamwork quality influences project success both for…
Research has shown that the maturity of small workgroups from a psychological perspective is intimately connected to team agility. We, therefore, tested if agile team members appreciated group development psychology training. Our results…
While global software development (GSD) projects face cultural and time differences, the biggest challenge is communication. We studied a distributed student project with an industrial customer. The project lasted 3 months, involved 25…
Agile Software Development (ASD) methodology has become widely used in the industry. Understanding the challenges facing software engineering students is important to designing effective training methods to equip students with proper skills…
Over the past years, there has been a shift towards online and hybrid meeting forms in workplace environments, partly as a consequence of various COVID-19 restrictions. However, the decision-making process on how to best collaborate with…
Given the relevance of coordination in the field of global software engineering, this work was carried out to further understand coordination mechanisms. Specifically, we investigated meetings and the collaboration tool Slack. We conducted…
From science to industry, teamwork plays a crucial role in knowledge production and innovation. Most studies consider teams as static groups of individuals, thereby failing to capture how the micro-dynamics of collaborative processes and…
