Context

Previous research found that the performance of a team not only depends on the team personality composition, but also on the interactive effects of team climate. Although investigation on personalities associated with software development has been an active research area over the past decades, there has been very limited research in relation to team climate.

Objective

Our study investigates the association between the five factor model personality traits (openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism) and the factors related to team climate (team vision, participative safety, support for innovation and task orientation) within the context of agile teams working in a telecom company.

Method

A survey was used to gather data on personality characteristics and team climate perceptions of 43 members from eight agile teams. The data was initially used for correlation analysis; then, regression models were developed for predicting the personality traits related to team climate perception.

Results

We observed a statistically significant positive correlation between openness to experience and support for innovation (r = 0.31). Additionally, agreeableness was observed to be positively correlated with overall team climate (r = 0.35). Further, from regression models, we observed that personality traits accounted to less than 15% of the variance in team climate.

Conclusion

A person's ability to easily get along with team members (agreeableness) has a significant positive influence on the perceived level of team climate. Results from our regression analysis suggest that further data may be needed, and/or there are other human factors, in addition to personality traits, that should also be investigated with regard to their relationship with team climate. Overall, the relationships identified in our study are likely to be applicable to organizations within the telecommunications domain that use scrum methodology for software development.

调查电信公司中软件专业人员的性格与敏捷团队氛围之间的关系

语境

先前的研究发现，团队的绩效不仅取决于团队的人格组成，还取决于团队氛围的互动影响。尽管在过去的几十年中，与软件开发相关的性格调查一直是活跃的研究领域，但是有关团队氛围的研究却非常有限。

目的

我们的研究调查了五种因素模型的人格特质（对经验的开放性，尽责性，外向性，和ness可亲和神经质）与团队氛围相关的因素（团队视野，参与性安全性，对创新的支持和任务导向）之间的关联。在电信公司工作的敏捷团队。

方法

一项调查用于收集来自八个敏捷团队的43名成员的个性特征和团队气候感知的数据。数据最初用于相关性分析；然后，开发了回归模型来预测与团队气候感知相关的人格特质。

结果

我们观察到开放的经验和对创新的支持之间存在统计学上的显着正相关（r = 0.31）。此外，观察到的认同感与整体团队氛围正相关（r = 0.35）。此外，从回归模型中，我们观察到人格特质占团队氛围差异的不到15％。

结论

一个人与团队成员轻松相处的能力（和a可亲）对团队气氛的感知水平具有显着的积极影响。我们回归分析的结果表明，可能还需要进一步的数据，和/或除人格特质外，还有其他人为因素，也应就其与团队氛围的关系进行调查。总体而言，我们研究中确定的关系很可能适用于使用Scrum方法进行软件开发的电信领域的组织。
