Abstract:
In the fast-changing business world, change management skills play a critical role in moulding change in favour of the competitive advantage. They have to deal with others’ emotions along with their own emotions in the fast-changing dynamics. In such a situation, executives’ emotional intelligence takes the centre stage in not only enhancing their change management skills but also in changing the course of change in favour of the organization. The present article attempts to explore the relationships of executives’ emotional intelligence with their change management skills. The article also examines as to which dimension of emotional intelligence significantly contribute in predicting and enriching their change management skills. A total of 510 executives from Indian organizations have been surveyed by using well-established measures of emotional intelligence and change management skills. Correlation and regression analysis unveils that self-awareness and self-management are the significant predictors and contributors in change management skills.
