Description
-----------
Agile software development processes (Agile), such as Scrum, DSDM, XP and Kanban, have become a defacto standard for software development practice. Scrum, the most commonly used process, focuses on delivering functioning software early and continuously, and emphasizes speed, communication and developer collaboration in the software development process. The Agile ethos, as exemplified in the Agile Manifesto, acknowledges that software development is not solely a technical endeavor, hence it requires input from a range of stakeholders outside the technical sphere. 

This workshop elicits practical and theoretical research regarding stakeholder involvement in Agile. This focus includes users, who have long been of interest in the HCI community, but also encompasses other stakeholders including customers, clients, managers, executives, business, funders and other specialists (legal, financial, political etc.), and other interested parties whose input is needed or sought during software development.
