Keywords:
emotional intelligence, team management, development, leader, team members, management decisionsAbstract
Purpose. The purpose of this study is to explore the role of emotional intelligence (EI) in enhancing team management effectiveness. Specifically, how EI contributes to team dynamics, communication, conflict resolution, and overall team performance. Design / Method / Approach. While writing the work, the materials of the work of leading scientists were studied. The research employed a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. Findings. The findings indicate a strong positive correlation between high levels of emotional intelligence in team leaders and improved team performance metrics, including productivity, collaboration, and job satisfaction. Qualitative data revealed that leaders with high EI were more adept at recognizing team members' emotions, fostering open communication, and motivating their teams. Theoretical Implications. This research contributes to the existing body of literature on emotional intelligence. It supports the theoretical framework that suggests EI is a critical competency for effective leadership and team dynamics, extending the understanding of how emotional intelligence impacts organizational behavior. Practical Implications. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating emotional intelligence training into leadership development programs. Organizations should prioritize EI in their hiring processes for team leaders and provide training to enhance emotional competencies. Fostering a culture that values emotional awareness can lead to more cohesive and high-performing teams. Originality / Value. This study adds value by bridging the gap between emotional intelligence theory and practical team management applications. It emphasizes the necessity of EI in leadership roles and provides actionable insights for organizations seeking to improve team dynamics and performance. Research Limitations / Future Research. Future research could explore longitudinal studies to assess the long-term effects of emotional intelligence on team management and investigate the role of EI in diverse cultural contexts. Paper Type. Practitioner Paper.
