Abstract: Abstract The accurate and targeted process of selecting the most appropriate human resources can be a key factor in organizational success. The increasing attention to the leadership factor in making organizational developments across the world and the key role of effective leader show the need to use effective methods to recruit effective leaders. In this chapter, based on the proposed model with the help of analytical hierarchy process (AHP), the main criteria on the leadership effectiveness in the organization are weighted. Then, each candidate is scored based on the mentioned criteria with the grey relational analysis (GRA). In this method, candidates with higher scores are introduced as the model selection. Since the grey relational theory follows some assumptions and principles such as nonuniqueness of solution and availability of minimum information, it can be used to greyly select leaders and make decisions on leaders when there is uncertainty and incomplete information.
