Agile approaches originated in software development. Due to their various advantages, they are being applied to many different industries and functions. Meanwhile, organizations face extreme challenges and obstacles in their Agile transformations and implementations. One of the major factors causing these challenges and obstacles relies on people related factors. As one of the critical human factors in Agile, Agile Mindset impacts all facets of behaviors and activities. Nevertheless, Agile Mindset-related matters are disregarded by several organizations and literature that focus on concrete and industrialized products of Agile. Motivated by this gap, we aimed to provide a thorough investigation of the research on Agile Mindset-related literature and modeled the obtained results by using Glaser’s Six C’s Grounded Theory coding family. Therefore, we aimed to provide a comprehensive insight into the Agile Mindset construct, which is new yet essential, required but hard to acquire, challenging to observe but important to notice, and cheap to disregard but at an excessive cost.
