“…Since studies have shown that failing in ISD projects can lead to a positive learning success, this approach promises beneficial long-term effects [7]. One of the striking aspects of agile ISD is to increase outcomes at work, such as motivation and job satisfaction [8][9][10]. The Agile Manifesto claims to value individuals and interaction over processes and tools.…”

Agile information systems development (ISD) has become a popular way to manage IT projects. One of the key claims of agile ISD is to increase employees' work outcomes, such as job satisfaction. However, the research landscape is heterogenous and lacks of a comprehensive overview. In this research, we set out to analyze and synthesize the current state of research on agile ISD and work outcomes by a systematic literature review. Overall, we found a trend of a positive relationship of agile ISD on work outcomes, although there is a variety of constructs that influence this relationship. We propose four directions for future research: perceptions of work, extended quantitative findings, multi-level effects and IT project success.

The Scrum method has an important place among agile software development methods, and its use worldwide has increased over the years. This study aims to measure the impact of the Scrum method on business processes and examine its relationship with employee satisfaction. Specifically, a common survey was applied to both the development team and stakeholders working with the Scrum method. Since separate studies are generally conducted for the development team or stakeholders, evaluating employees in both roles in a single research constitutes a distinctive element of the study. An in-depth examination of the effects of Scrum and its relationship with employee satisfaction will significantly contribute to the literature. Within the scope of the research, a survey was administered to the employees of a bank. In the survey, following the demographic questions, the participants were asked questions about Scrum method applications and their perspectives on the method, and then other questions were included to understand their satisfaction levels. 108 people participated in the survey, and the answers were analyzed using SPSS. Since the data did not show a parametric distribution due to the survey, the answers were analyzed using Spearman Correlation Analysis, Mann Whitney U, and Kruskal Wallis test. As a result, it has been seen that the factors that increase the satisfaction between IT teams and stakeholders the most are related to the alignment and team solidarity between the teams. In addition, it has been observed that regardless of the roles of the people in the team, seeing their work as meaningful has a significant positive impact on satisfaction. Finally, there was rarely a notable difference between demographic elements and stress and satisfaction variables, and a significant difference was only seen between the number of people in the team and stress.

Agile project management (APM) is essential to guiding projects toward success, as demonstrated by the quick evolution of project management techniques in the face of shifting organizational environments. This investigation is driven by research questions that aim to identify emerging patterns and modifications in APM procedures. This study examines current advancements by taking the time frame for literature inclusion into account, which makes it a relevant and contemporary analysis. Results highlight the diversity of Agile methods, including modifications within approaches like Kanban and Lean, SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework), Extreme Programming (XP), DevOps with Agile, and Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS). The review clarifies how organizational cultures are changing and highlights how a cooperative and open atmosphere is necessary to support the changing APM paradigm. Moreover, the amalgamation of obstacles encountered by establishments when using agile methodologies beyond Scrum drives conversations toward practical remedies and approaches
