Abstract:
Software companies are increasingly seeking approaches that facilitate the management
of their work teams. Understanding how individuals interact during the software develop-
ment process, how they think, and how they behave in teamwork environments highlights
the importance of identifying the personalities of all team members as a means to improve
management. In the literature, there are some approaches aimed at team management in the
agile world, but they often overlook the relevance of personality as a factor influencing the
quality of teamwork. This thesis presents a process, based on a Bayesian Network model,
that utilizes the mix of personalities to measure, predict, evaluate, and assist in managing the
quality of teamwork in agile software projects. The proposed solution was evaluated for its
practical utility through action research involving six Scrum teams from real projects within
an organization. Based on the results obtained, it was possible to assess the feasibility of the
model in aiding the management of teamwork quality in agile software projects.
