Author(s) Ms. Subhasree Roy, Dr. Soma Nandi

Abstract Emotional intelligence is the ability to notice and control your own emotions, and to understand the emotions of others so you can use that information to guide your thinking and actions. Leadership is the ability to influence and direct a team toward a shared vision. This article will shine a light on the importance of emotional intelligence (EI) in leadership, the impact EI has on organisational performance and employee well-being, and the need to focus on EI in leadership development. This paper investigates the importance of Emotional Intelligence (EI) as a key element in successful leadership. EI also increases a leader’s ability to make good decisions, manage conflict constructively, handle crises calmly and in turn motivate followers by creating trust and a common purpose. Those competences translate into concrete advantages, such as the higher productivity of our teams, better worker commitment and a more positive corporate culture. The findings demonstrate an inescapable truth, if the organisations of today are going to succeed, they obviously need those success drivers throughout their leadership ranks. This article offers real-world suggestions for incorporating EI development into leadership programs and highlights the strategic importance of such efforts in ensuring organisational resilience and success.
