Global Software Development (GSD) projects became a common way to develop software during the last decade. However, despite the economic benefits that globalization may introduce, GSD faces a series of factors that affect communication and challenge its success. In order to improve communication in such environments, we focus on techniques from the field of cognitive psychology to define a new approach to groupware tools selection. In this paper we present a series of strategies to find the best choice for a given group of people, taking into account the different combinations of cognitive profiles that can arise in a GSD project, as well as the application of one of these strategies in a case study.
