Emotional intelligence, moral reasoning and transformational leadership
TLDR
The authors explored the association of emotional intelligence and moral reasoning to leadership style and effectiveness using university residence staff as their leaders of interest, and found that leaders who reported higher levels of emotion intelligence were perceived by their followers as higher in transformational leadership and more effective.Abstract:
Using university residence staff as our leaders of interest, we explored the association of emotional intelligence and moral reasoning to leadership style and effectiveness. A total of 58 residence staff completed questionnaires assessing their emotional intelligence and moral reasoning. Subordinates (n=232) rated the residence staff’s leadership behaviours and effectiveness. Residence staff’s supervisors (n=12) also provided similar effectiveness ratings. Analysis showed that leaders who reported higher levels of emotional intelligence were perceived by their followers as higher in transformational leadership and more effective. Interestingly, having high emotional intelligence was not related to supervisor’s ratings of effectiveness. Supervisors associated greater job effectiveness with higher moral reasoning. Theoretical implications and practical applications of these findings are discussed.read more
