Abstract

Agile project teams are potentially easy to govern than traditional project teams due to the greater visibility and opportunities to steer provided to stakeholders. Unfortunately, traditional IT governance strategies prove to be at odds to agile's collaborative, value-focused strategies. As a result a lean approach based on enablement, collaboration, and motivation is required to effectively govern agile teams.
