Abstract: | Leadership has both social and emotional components. Social intelligence appears to tap the social component found in leadership.
Recently, emotional intelligence has surfaced as a stable individual difference variable and appears to tap the emotional
component of leadership. Mayer and Salovey (1993) suggested that the emotional intelligence and social intelligence constructs
overlap. This study examined the power of both emotional and social intelligence to account for variance in self-reported
leadership experiences. One hundred ninety-two university students completed measures of social and emotional intelligence
and a measure of leadership experiences. Regression analyses showed that both social intelligence and emotional intelligence
accounted for variance in leadership experiences. Although emotional intelligence was found to account for variance in leadership,
it did not add unique variance beyond social intelligence. Social intelligence appears to play a principal role in leadership. |
