Abstract Today’s world requires new approaches to innovation that leverage continuous testing and pivoting. Speed the ability respond exogenous shocks are becoming increasingly important in both theory practice. Following introduction of Agile Manifesto 2001, a wide range industries have adopted agile approaches, which differ from other ways managing projects by promoting flexibility rapid development solutions. Despite proliferation across industries, literature lacks systematic understanding their underlying elements. Therefore, we conduct review using text mining technique longitudinally explore evolutionary dynamics field. Analyzing results through dichotomous lens contingency configuration theories, show can be systematized into two perspectives: agile-as-a-tool perspective, agile-as-a-culture perspective. Our reveals underexplored intersections field provides interesting insights these perspectives. We also propose research agenda shed light on emerging perspectives management literature.

We live in a complex and hybrid world which the digital physical realms have never been so closely intertwined. Managerial practices are increasingly merging to give rise more agile approaches that align with we inhabit. In this study, explore case of xFarm, scaleup has developed unique form leadership manage innovation process. This approach allows for coexistence both dimensions. identify key drivers specific facilitate approach. Digital is thus defined as ability navigate such complexity adapt evolving needs situations. study offers three main takeaways leaders can use environments. These serve reference points setting direction, while behaviors should be tailored particular field, line principles.

In the literature on construction projects, role of project managers in maintaining control over tasks and activities has been theorized comprehensively, placing a firm focus vertical forms leadership. Increasingly, firms are challenged with unprecedented operational uncertainty brought about by changes to environments, technology, labor. Similar challenges other contexts have led growing research shared or horizontal approaches leadership, which particularly effective making organizations more agile uncertain environments. Through systematic review 290 peer-reviewed articles leadership construction, this paper considers extent traditional supplemented emerging balanced across six bodies research. It contends that despite evidence for increasing implementation practices theory dominates comparison, there is dearth addressing scarce consideration Based review, stronger integration archetype proposed as logical means advancing relation vectors.

Abstract Agile methods and the related concepts of employee empowerment, self-management, autonomy have reached large-scale software organizations raise questions about commonly adopted principles for authority distribution. However, optimum mechanism to balance need alignment, quality, process control with or willingness teams be autonomous remains an unresolved issue. In this paper, we report our findings from a multiple-case study in two development telecom industry. We analysed agile using Hackman’s classification unit found that were partly self-managing. Further, alignment across can achieved top-down by management bottom-up through membership communities dialogue between team management. degree was limited organizational alignment. Top-down maintained centralized decision-making certain areas, use supervisory roles, mandatory processes, checklists. One case employed approach formation community composed all teams, experts, supporting but excluding managers. This community-based involved engaged them initiatives. conclude implementation such structures seems provide one possible balancing development.

Abstract Competence-based approaches have received increased attention, as the demand for qualified people with right combination of competences establishes itself a major factor organizational performance. This paper examines how can be incorporated into Enterprise Architecture modeling: (i) we identify key set competence-related concepts such knowledge, skills, and attitudes, (ii) analyze relate them using reference ontology (grounded on Unified Foundational Ontology), (iii) propose representation strategy modeling their constituent elements leveraging ArchiMate language, discussing proposed models fit in enterprise competence-based practices. Our approach is intended to cover two tasks relevant combined application Competence Modeling: ‘zooming in’ competences, revealing relations between attitudes other personal characteristics that matter performance, out’ placing wider context overall capabilities. An assessment offered form an empirical survey.

This article is intended as a conceptual and practical foundation for those who wish to conduct research in the area of leadership-as-practice. Rather than offer single methodology studying how social leadership activity carried out everyday life, it details pluralistic set methods presents series theoretical guidelines through its phenomenological form inquiry. In particular, endorses discursive, narrative, ethnographic, aesthetic, multimodal attempt capture concurrent, collective, dialogical practices. After providing an overview praxis-oriented methodological basis leadership-as-practice, turns building blocks that can provide some guidance selecting appropriate study. These incorporate issues agency, identity, materiality, context, power, dialogue. The author hopes researchers will take up challenge examining dynamics “from within” co-participate working with actors engaged projects significance advance their mutual endeavors.

Purpose Drawing upon the theoretical underpinning of knowledge worker productivity, this study aims to examine relationship between abusive supervision and management (KM) process (creation, application sharing knowledge) its impact on productivity in knowledge-intensive organizations. Design/methodology/approach Hypothesis were tested through PROCESS Macro IBM SPSS v.26 a sample 204 employees working banking sector Pakistan. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted test model fitness AMOS v. 26. Findings The results showed that KM is negative highly significant, i.e. greater sector, lower engagement processes. Furthermore, there positive significant productivity. Finally, indicates mediating mechanism Research limitations/implications A key limitation cross-sectional, findings may only be generalizable developing countries context. Originality/value Previous studies have focused supervisor–employee but not context This article fulfills gap understanding relation processes (knowledge creation, application) by drawing

Abstract An increasing number of companies aim to enable their development teams work in an agile manner. When introducing teams, face several challenges. This paper explores the kind leadership needed support way. One theoretical concept describes a Scrum Master who is supposed empower team lead itself. Empirical findings on such role are controversial. We still have not understood how unfolds that by definition self-organizing. Further exploration better understand teams. Our goal explore changes while matures using example Master. Through grounded theory study containing 75 practitioners from 11 divisions at Robert Bosch GmbH we identified set nine roles transferred Development Team it matures. uncovered gap and supportive internal climate enablers transfer process, whereas conflicts may diminish transfer. To make change mature team, members need receive trust freedom take which was previously filled conclude with practical implications for managers, Product Owners, Teams Masters they can apply real settings.
