Abstract

Software development is not always a successful task, mainly for human related reasons. This situation highlights the importance of focusing on the human factor to help organizations in reducing the risk of failure due to this factor. As a solution, this paper presents a model that aims to help organizations in the integration of highly effective teams for software development, based on three factors: skills, interactive styles and knowledge. The paper includes the development of the model steps and the proposal of an environment we are developing to implement the model using gamification so that it will present an attractive way to integrate the teams.
