Employee Satisfaction in Agile Teams - Study
The EBE group of University of Calgary is carrying out a study of the effects of agile methods on the lives and views of agile team members. The online survey asks for views on various job satisfaction factors as well as some demographic information.
In order to take part in the survey, please visit http://www.agilenetwork.ca/study/
It should take participants no longer than 10 minutes to complete the survey.
Results will be posted at the end of the study.
Thank you for your anticipated participation.
