Abstract:
The study reported in this paper was conducted to examine the relationship between the Emotional intelligence and the Personal efficacy of Managers from selected Indian organizations. 113 managers were selected from different organizations in India. The participants were asked to complete the ‘SREIT’ and the ‘Personal Efficacy Scale’ questionnaire. Data analysis and statistical calculations revealed that there is a significant relationship between the Manager’s Emotional Intelligence and their Personal Efficacy. To investigate which components of Emotional Intelligence might have more predictive power in predicting a manager’s personal efficacy, a regression analysis was also run. The 4 subscales of emotional intelligence – ‘Emotional Regulation’, ‘Facilitate Emotion’, ‘Perceive & Appraise Emotion’ and ‘Understand Emotion’– were found to be good predictors of a manager’s self-efficacy. The conclusions and implications of the research were discussed with reference to the earlier findings.
