Team Performance in Agile Software Development Projects: The Effects of Requirements Changes, Time Pressure, Team Diversity, and Conflict

Diegmann, P., Rosenkranz, C.

A structured way to think about requirements volatility, time pressure and conflict in agile teams.

My role: first and corresponding author. Full research process.

Study

A model of four project management stressors, tested on eight student teams (33 students). This is a controlled first test, not a field finding.

Why it matters in practice

Requirements changes, time pressure and conflict interact in agile teams. The model gives project managers a vocabulary for them.
