This chapter evaluates EI research, introduces the concept of engaged interaction, and explains how leaders can use EI for self-improvement. Goleman describes EI as a manager's ability to recognize the emotions in self and others. The manager then uses this information to make improvements in self-management and relationships with others. EI leads people to gain awareness by recognizing personal emotions and the emotions of others. This creates an emotional state of consciousness where people use the information skillfully and intelligently in deliberate, purposeful decision-making activities. The concept of engaged interaction is achieved when all parties participate in flexible, full-range communication, making sure to listen, hear, and understand. This open and flexible communication must continue until interaction and shared understanding are achieved. Leaders can combine EI, engaged interaction, and strategic flexibility to improve operations and team building.

A broad spectrum systems theory approach to the delivery of psychological services is presented. The target population includes the athletes, coaches, administrators, ski company representatives, and family members. The delivery of service involves individual dyadic and group sessions. The methods of service include educational, clinical, organizational, and a research data base. The major goal is to instill individual self-monitoring and self-control of personal well-being and achievement. Utilizing several theoretical frameworks such as behavioral, cognitive, humanistic, group dynamics, and insight oriented has worked best. Success of the program is multifactored: (a) being willing to commit a major amount of time to a single sport; (b) providing a broad range of services, from mental skills training, crises intervention, injury prevention and rehabilitation to team building, communication, and referral of individual to practitioners; (c) attending to organizational issues and program evaluation; and (d) common sense, practicability, and a willingness to be flexible with programs.

Innumerable teams have emerged in health care, spurred by the desire to improve patient quality and satisfaction, provide better population outcomes, and reduce per capita cost. Team leaders are faced with many choices in team development, such as collaboration or competition. Although each approach has unique advantages and disadvantages, is one approach better suited to building the teams needed in today’s environment? This review examines these two distinct team-building approaches. A literature review of these two approaches in light of the theoretical frameworks of social identity theory and team role theory shows support for both ends of the spectrum; however, collaboration was linked more often with highly successful and effective teams. Ultimately, the literature demonstrates that collaboration is better suited to developing teamwork capable of achieving today’s complex health care goals.

Universities are increasingly leveraging virtual teams into the organizational structure and strategic framework for many functions including academic administration and faculty leadership. One benefit of a virtual workforce is the ability to hire the most qualified individuals regardless of where they are physically located. As the virtual workforce expands, leaders may intuitively rely on traditional face-to-face approaches and strategies for employee oversight and motivation. These techniques may be ineffective or challenging to use in the virtual environment necessitating new approaches. Leaders of virtual teams need to understand the intricacies associated with these groups and be cognizant of factors that assist in creating cohesiveness, trust, and communication amongst virtual teams. This qualitative phenomenological study explores leaders’ perceptions surrounding competencies needed to effectively lead virtual teams in online education. A decisive sampling method was used to identify 10 experienced academic leaders who supervise virtual teams. As a result of the interviews, seven major themes emerged: (a) training and development; (b) trust; (c) emotional intelligence; (d) communication/team building/technology; (e) employee recognition and motivation; (f) leadership styles; and (g) virtual leadership competencies unique to higher education. Based on these themes and further evaluation the need for specific soft skills and robust technology emerged. Specifically, organizational success partially hinges on comprehensive training for virtual leaders, the significance of trust, emotional intelligence, and effective, respectful communication.

Emotional intelligence plays a very important role for a leader because it can help the effectiveness of coach leadership among trainees and can even guarantee the transfer of training that has been given to trainees. When there is a failure to curb this situation will have a more negative impact on organizations and individuals, and if it is not proactively addressed. Therefore, this study aims to identify the level and relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership effectiveness among coaches. A total of 74 sets of questionnaires were distributed to respondents who have participated in the Transformation Program (Team Building) organized by XYZ training center on October 20, 2018 until October 22, 2018. Descriptive analysis shows the results of the study on emotional intelligence level and leadership effectiveness among coaches. While the correlation analysis proves that there is a significant relationship with r = 0.828 between emotional intelligence and leadership effectiveness among coaches. Thus, this study has shown that emotional intelligence has a significant relationship with leadership effectiveness among coaches.


This chapter sets the stage to build Motivationally Intelligent Leadership. We start with Emotional Intelligence (EI) to build leaders who recognize and employ their own emotions to conduct quality interactions with others. Leaders identify the value available to each party and then use two-way communication to get buy-in. Engaged interaction is defined as employing flexible, full-range communications to ensure that both, or all, parties listen, hear, and understand. This concept requires that all parties continue the interaction until management and team-building objectives are satisfied. EI and engaged interaction allow leaders to conduct effective communication with the team. Getting to know yourself and your team helps your ability to be impartial and listen for ideas, not just words.

ABSTRACT Emotional intelligence may allow accountants to perform better in leadership, team building, client relations, and decision-making. Unfortunately, very little is known about the antecedents to emotional intelligence; however, there have been attempts to improve the emotional intelligence of university students through classroom exercises. It has also been suggested that work experience is instrumental in improving emotional intelligence. In this study, we examined the emotional intelligence of a total of 430 first- and fourth-year accounting and liberal arts students at three universities with accounting programs that include different liberal arts requirements. We also analyzed the relationship between four components of work experience and emotional intelligence. Our findings raise concerns for accounting program development and provide guidance for those seeking to facilitate relevant work experiences for students.


The concept of Emotional Intelligence (EI) has gained a great amount of public popularity and business attention in the past two decades. EI is currently considered a broadly recognized practitioner instrument for hiring, training, leadership development, and team building by the business people. In this context, the analysis of the evolution and development of this concept is crucial. In order to do so, this study presents the global research trends in EI area. The article presents a bibliometric analysis of 4297 journal articles on EI. These works come from the Scopus database for the period 1966-2018. The study sorts these articles according to the following bibliographic indicators: journal with most published research, highly cited articles, countries with the highest rate of productivity, prolific authors, year of publication, language, and research area. Besides, the study graphically maps the bibliographic material by using the visualization of similarities (VOS) viewer software. In order to do so, the work uses co-authorship among authors and affiliated countries, and co-occurrence of author keywords. Results have shown that since 2005, the number of publications has increased exponentially, resulting in the steady increase in the cumulative total publications until present. The United States (US) is the most productive country. Also, among the most productive university from each of the 15 leading countries, three were amongst the world’s top 100 universities. The prominent authors were Petrides, Konstantinos V. and Extremera Pacheco, Natalio. whereas the top journals were the Personality and Individual Differences, Frontiers in Psychology and Life Science Journal. A network visualisation map showed that ‘emotional intelligence’, ‘emotions’ and ‘personality’ were the most encountered key terms. Therefore, this paper serves as a platform for the new researchers to refer concerning which journals, authors and articles they may consult while establishing the future research direction.
