Team leading challenges in software development projects

Scrum and agile approach in software development eases the way teams are handled and managed. With the right application of this approach into software development projects, Scrum can influence team cohesion, improved efficiency and better control of the final product. Thus, team management in the phase of integration of Scrum values and modifying its "rules" is very important and can have a massive implication on results. Although all standard approaches in team management are important, key for success with Scrum is a personal relationship between Team Leader and the team itself. Maintaining and building human relations and positive atmosphere between team members can help overcome difficult stages in the project. Right motivation and sense of togetherness can, in some circumstances compensate for mistakes in planning or execution. Key in building this circle is Team leader, who needs to guide team through conflicts and team evolution.
