Implications of Agile Project Management on Performance Management

The objective of this paper is to identify shortcomings related to performance management in an agile project environment, e.g., how performance management affects individual performance; and evaluate them in the sense of potential negative impacts on project and organizational performance. On this basis, potential solutions, and measures for a redesign of performance management systems have been proposed. This research paper uses contextual research questions and qualitative analysis and suggests several ways to redesign performance management in agile projects.
