Abstract
Developing software using Scrum is
predominantly a team-based activity. Consequently it is an
intensely social endeavour. The Agile Manifesto strongly
advocates using teamwork to develop software. Scrum is the
most widely adopted Agile software development method
currently being used both worldwide and in Ireland.
The success of the Scrum team follows from the effective
interdependence of the team members. Interdependent teams
trust each other implicitly. However, little research has
been conducted into the development and fostering of trust
in co-located Scrum teams. Using a Constructivist
Grounded theory study involving one team from a large
multinational software development organisation in the
West of Ireland we investigate how trust is developed and
fostered in the team
