                         sharing is not easy because the practices that allow it to happen 
                         are poorly reported in the literature. As a consequence, many 
                         agile software organizations find it difficult to share 
                         experiences and best practices in their contexts, as well as 
                         improve employees' skills and expertise. Results from our previous 
                         qualitative studies enabled us to generate a pattern language that 
                         aims to help agile software organizations to adopt practices for 
                         fostering interaction among agile teams in order to share 
                         knowledge across teams and create collective knowledge. This paper 
                         contributes to the agile software development and knowledge 
                         management fields with practical guidance to organizations aiming 
                         those improvements. Because of space limitations, we describe only 
                         five patterns of the pattern language in this paper, which are 
                         briefly presented as follows. Open Workspace helps to stimulate 
                         face-­\‐to-­\‐ face conversations across teams. 
                         Rotation of Teams' Members is a practice about transferring of 
                         professionals to other teams in order to spread technical, 
                         methodological and managerial solutions in a sustainable way. Pair 
                         Programming among Different Teams are specially adopted to level 
                         technical knowledge throughout the company. Collective Meetings 
                         foster inter-­\‐team communication and alignment about 
                         company's projects and goals. Finally, Technical Presentations 
                         stimulate continuous learning and knowledge sharing behaviour. It 
                         is important to note that the adoption of the pattern language is 
                         affected by forces, such as organizational culture, environment, 
                         and top management and leadership support. These forces need to 
                         balanced to facilitate and/or reinforce the patterns.",
