The survey method was used. Total enumeration technique and questionnaire was used for data gathering from a population size of 450 managers in the surveyed companies out of which 400 responded giving a response rate of 88.8 percent. Simple correlation and hierarchical regression analyses were used for data analysis. The study established that there were significant correlations among self-efficacy, emotional intelligence, information acquisition, information utilization and effective leadership of the respondents. It was further established that self-efficacy, emotional intelligence, information acquisition and utilization were significant determinants of effective leadership of managers in the packaging companies in Nigeria. It was therefore recommended that the board of management in the studied companies should endeavour to encourage their managers to acquire and utilize information to enhance their effective leadership.
