Abstract:
This article examines the role of the noncognitive ability, Emotional Intelligence (EI), in leadership. As the complexity of tasks required of teams expands, leaders are increasingly expected to play a role in supporting followers in demonstrating their own abilities. For this reason, a leader’s attitude toward followers is important and rooted in EI. There are five elements of EI: “Self-awareness,” “Self-regulation,” “Motivation,” “Empathy,” and “Social skills.” Being able to recognize “Self-awareness” leads to “Self-regulation” and “Motivation.” At the same time, “Self-awareness” also moves from “Empathy” to “Social skills.” In this paper, the cultivation of EI is also discussed.
