摘要:The major objective of this study was to explore the nature of relationship between emotional intelligence and transformational leadership style using Pearson correlation method. Goleman who popularized the concept of the science of emotional intelligence and brought it to its academic zenith drew on a wealth of research to argue that successful leaders need emotional intelligence, or the attributes of self-awareness, impulse control, persistence, confidence, self-motivation empathy, social deftness, trust worthiness, adaptability, and a talent of collaboration. Data were generated through 5 – point Likert-type questionnaire based on Schutte, Self-Report questionnaire. The Pearson correlation coefficient shows a strong positive relationship between emotional intelligence and transformational leadership style. The study therefore concludes that leadership success is to a greater extent, due to emotional intelligence.
