Organizational culture and the deployment of agile methods: The competing values model view

Abstract

A number of researchers have identified organizational culture as a factor that potentially affects the deployment of agile systems development methods. Inspired by the study of Iivari and Huisman (2007), which focused on the deployment of traditional systems development methods, the present paper proposes a number of hypotheses about the influence of organizational culture on the deployment of agile methods. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
