Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to examine the key elements of personnel management in agile organizations and determine which features have the greatest impact on team effectiveness. The work focuses on aspects such as interpersonal relations, self-discipline, time management, and cooperation in the context of agile management methods. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study was conducted using a survey with 312 respondents representing various industries. The analysis of the results included calculating correlations between key aspects of HR management in agile organizations, which allowed for the assessment of their mutual dependencies. Findings: The study results indicate that interpersonal relationships, cooperation, and self-discipline are key to the functioning of agile teams. The strong correlations between these elements suggest that effective personnel management in agile organizations relies on mutual support and the ability to manage time independently. Practical Implications: The study results provide practical advice for managers and leaders of organizations that are trying to implement agile methods of managing people. Understanding the key elements that affect team effectiveness can help create more integrated and flexible organizational structures. Originality/Value: The article brings a new perspective to the research on personnel management in agile organizations, analyzing the relationships between different elements, such as interpersonal relations, self-discipline, and time management. The work provides valuable conclusions for practitioners and theoreticians dealing with contemporary management methods.
