abstract

  • This paper highlights the importance of establishing sound selection approaches for successful team performance in team-based organizations. Four different selection approaches are examined through a comprehensive literature review and a discussion of their strengths and weaknesses, selection procedures, and effectiveness is provided. Relevant journal articles, books, and conference papers were searched on Google Scholar, EBSCOhost, and PsycINFO to gather research on this topic. Some of the key search terms used were "traditional selection procedures," "team-based selection procedures," "team composition," and "cluster hiring." It was concluded that a combination of the team-based knowledge, skills, abilities and other characteristics (KSAOs) approach and the team composition selection approach are the best approaches for team-based organizations due to their practicality and effectiveness.
