Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Agile management practices in enhancing team performance and project success using survey data collected from 33 software professionals in Bangladesh. The descriptive analysis shows that respondents report a high mean score of 4.18 for Agile Management Effectiveness (on a 5-point scale), indicating strong confidence in Agile’s ability to improve coordination, adaptability, and workflow efficiency. In contrast, the mean score for Iteration Difficulty is 3.17, reflecting moderate challenges that vary across organizations. The results further demonstrate an inverse relationship between Agile effectiveness and iteration difficulty, suggesting that higher perceived effectiveness is associated with smoother project execution and improved team performance. Additionally, more than two-thirds of respondents associate Agile practices with 60–90% project success, indicating positive perceived contributions of Agile methodologies to organizational outcomes. While findings confirm the value of Agile management in dynamic project environments, the variability observed across respondents highlights the importance of organizational readiness and implementation quality. Overall, this study provides empirical evidence supporting Agile management as a key driver of project success in software development contexts.
