Opis

Knowledge is considered to be an organisation's greatest asset and an essential factor in guaranteeing competitive advantages in the market. Agile Software Development Methodologies strongly emphasise tacit knowledge and informal communication, supported by different practices that promote the transmission of experience and knowledge. However, aspects such as the creation, storage and reuse of knowledge are not directly addressed by these practices. In addition, knowledge sharing tends not to go beyond team boundaries, favouring the creation of 'knowledge islands' within the organisation. Supported by interviews and questionnaires, this book analyses the techniques, strategies and challenges faced in managing knowledge effectively in agile teams in Recife's local productive arrangement, Porto Digital.
