Abstract: Abstract Temporary teams quickly adapt to changes in the external environment with members diversity, task importance, and limited time, have attracted more and more attention from scholars. Therefore, this paper uses the bibliometric method to sort out of the temporary teams research systematically. In the process of collecting the literature of temporary teams, we find that the current research scope is narrow, and the research hot spots are scattered. Through a systematic literature review of the temporary teams research, this paper identifies the core authors, core literature, current research hot spots, and future research directions of temporary teams. Besides, according to the core literature, the core theory in current temporary teams research is summarized. Finally this paper presents the idea of applying temporary teams to controllers and pilots in the field of civil aviation and hopes to provide some reference value for scholars to study temporary teams in the future.
