Sammanfattning

Agile methodologies combined with remote working is a relatively new phenomenon that arose with increasing popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic. This way of working has resulted in a new norm, creating a shift in the work environment. Therefore, this study aims to analyze how Agile methodologies are affected when working from home is becoming a more permanent part of the work culture. Methods chosen for this work were a literature review and semi-structured interviews in the form of qualitative research. The theoretical framework presents three main areas: the origins of Agile methodologies and applicable frameworks, relevant research on remote work and the effects of COVID-19, and recent studies of the combination of Agile methods and remote work. During the compilation of this study, key aspects related to the purpose were identified. These are communication, autonomy, and flexibility; however, team cohesion and cooperation, productivity, and well-being also turn out to be important indicators.
