Assessment Instructions: You are the team leader for a software development project. You are developing a new software product. Complete a 3 to 5 page paper describing your Selected Agile development process framework that includes discussion of roles, responsibilities, and management tools you will use to support the development process. Describe how the positions in an Agile development team differ from more standard (SDLC) based methodologies and how the roles of your team members are influenced by the workplace organization and culture. Then describe how your own persona, or the aspect of your character as perceived by others, may influence the development process, factoring in any larger societal contexts that may impact your personal experiences.
