This review study examines how Crew Resource Management (CRM) has evolved since its introduction in the late 1970s and asks what the next generation of CRM training should look like. By questioning whether current CRM models are keeping pace with technological and operational change, the article contributes to an ongoing discussion about how pilots should be trained to manage uncertainty, complexity, and human-machine interaction in the next era of aviation.

This 2026 systematic review by Molloy et al. highlights the growing role of machine-learning approaches in objectively assessing cognitive workload in aviation through physiological and behavioural data such as EEG, heart rate variability, and eye-tracking. For CRM and human-factors practitioners, the paper is significant because it demonstrates how advances in data analytics may allow workload to be monitored more accurately and potentially in real time, providing deeper insight into how workload influences situational awareness, decision-making, and crew coordination in complex operational environments

The seminal paper by Eduardo Salas and colleagues introduced the Big Five Model of Teamwork (B5T) as an integrative framework for understanding the behavioural processes that underpin effective team performance in complex environments. The authors reviewed a large body of teamwork literature and synthesised more than a hundred previously proposed teamwork frameworks into five core teamwork behaviours: team leadership; mutual performance monitoring; backup behaviour; adaptability; team orientation
