Abstract

Women make up half of the world’s population, but they continue to face in equalities in every field, whether in government or non - government organizations, and particularly in leadership because men believe women cannot be good leaders or managers, whereas men agree for women to work at home because men believe women are only good for domestic work. However, the number of female leaders is still low when compared to male leaders. Nowadays the percentage of women in leadership positions is increasing and advancing towards gender parity. We endeavored to examine by mean so fliterturere view the impact of Emotional Intelligence (EI) on women’s leadership since we found that EI is a key factor in predicting effective leadership traits. We also found there is a social perception that women tend to be seen as more emotional and empathic than men. We review the definitions of leadership and EI and explore the link between EI, leadership and women. Several leadership scholars and psychologists argue than EI is an important foundation for leadership effectiveness. When it comes to learning EI, men and women have the same opportunities to acquire a great EI through reflection and experience. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and leadership styles (transformational and transactional). This paper concludes that although Indian business are dominated by men were women do not have proportionate representation, skill the Indian women are better off than their counter parts in other regions of the world when it comes to holding higher positions in the corporate hierarchy. However, we highlight the necessity for increasing the number of women in leadership positions by enhancing and supporting women’s leadership competencies.
