Abstract :
Structured and disciplined communication is a prerequisite for the effective management of risks. In this paper, we investigate what risk management information is communicated in traditional and agile development environments. Our goal is to find out whether there is any difference in the way risks are communicated. We do this by studying the management of risk information within three Canadian organizations. Our results show that there are few differences between the information as communicated in these traditional and agile environments.
