title = "Leading agile teams: An exploratory study of leadership styles in agile software development",
abstract = "Leadership is crucial for agile team effectiveness and performance. The roles played by project leaders have significantly changed in agile methodologies, but very limited studies on leadership have been conducted in the agile software development context. Motivated by this gap, this study aims to investigate the roles of various leadership styles in agile methodologies and understand how different types of leadership can collaboratively improve an agile project's performance. We will conduct an exploratory case study to develop a research model. Our study will contribute to the theoretical understanding of leadership roles in agile projects. The findings will also provide guidance to project management practices.",
