I have not read the full article (pay wall), but I have definitely experienced this in professional settings. I'd be interested to hear other people's thoughts on this, especially with startup's desire to build "killer teams"!

I see it's not in Google Scholar (http://scholar.google.com/scholar?as_ylo=2014&q=The+Too-Much...) but you can get the paper from Libgen: http://libgen.org/scimag/index.php?s=The+Too-Much-Talent+Eff... - I've reuploaded to https://pdf.yt/d/AzOTKVBwmqKla6V6 / https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/243666993/2014-swaab.pdf - but if Libgen didn't work, you could always have tried http://scholar.reddit.com/
