The present research studied the relationship between performance-based EI and transformational leadership as exhibited by participants in the work role with leadership effectiveness as perceived by their superiors and subordinates. The sample comprised 200 managers who were administered the Mayer, Salovey, and Caruso EI Test and the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) 5X scale. Superior’s perception of leadership effectiveness was measured via the MLQ 5X scale as well as effectiveness scale developed by Shanock and Eisenberger (2006). Supervisory leadership survey developed by Kerr, Garvin, Heaton, and Boyle (2006) was administered to subordinates to assess their perception of leadership effectiveness. A Pearson’s correlation coefficient revealed that there was a significant positive correlation between subordinates’ perception of leadership effectiveness and overall EQ ( r = 0.27, p Keywords: Ability-based emotional intelligence; transformational leadership; perceived leadership effectiveness; superior rating; subordinate rating (search for similar items in EconPapers) Downloads: (external link) Related works: Export reference: BibTeX RIS (EndNote, ProCite, RefMan) HTML/Text Persistent link: https://EconPapers.repec.org/RePEc:sae:busper:v:4:y:2016:i:1:p:27-40 Access Statistics for this article More articles in Business Perspectives and Research |
