Abstract: This study investigates the relationship between Emotional Intelligence (EI) management and its influence on team dynamics within the Greek business context. The research adopts a quantitative approach and data collection was collected from 360 leaders from different sectors across Greece using questionnaires. Key findings reveal that each EI component distinctly influences team dynamics. Self-awareness, characterised by introspection and emotion recognition, emerged as a foundational element, affecting how leaders perceive and interact within their teams. The results show that Emotional Intelligence (EI) significantly predicts a team dynamics and performance. Teams under the direction of high EI members typically exhibit increased output, effectiveness, creativity, and worker satisfaction. The study contributes greatly to the understanding of EI in organisational leadership in general and Greek cultural dynamics in especially where interpersonal interactions and collectivism are valued.
