The manager used her judgment to choose the two people she felt were representative of the whole team's views. This is a subjective method of sampling and is commonly used in situations where the researcher has expert knowledge about the subjects being studied. Convenience sampling involves selecting participants who are easily accessible, simple random sampling involves selecting participants randomly from a larger population, and cluster sampling involves dividing the population into clusters and selecting participants within those clusters. None of these methods were used in this scenario.
