dc.description.abstract |
Emotional intelligence has become prominent within the management
literature as an underlying attribute of effective leadership. The
perceptions of 75 participants regarding their senior managers'
emotional intelligence were investigated by using the 360-degree
Emotional Competency Profiler (ECP) as a measure of emotional
intelligence. The managers who were evaluated by the participants
represented 24 South African companies. Results indicated that senior
managers in the selected companies rated relatively higher on selfmotivation
and self-esteem/self-regard than on self-management,
integration of head and heart, change resilience and emotional literacy.
The implications of the findings are discussed and recommendations for
future research are made. This study makes an important contribution
to the expanding body of knowledge concerned with the evaluation of
attributes related to emotional intelligence that influence the performance
of South African business leaders. |
