| description | The article investigates the degree of association between the emotional intelligence
(EI) of school principals and their performance rating. The concept of EI is defined
and data collected using the Mayer, Salovey, and Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test.
This is related to the performance of the school in terms of test scores in national
examinations as well as other measurable variables at the school level. The findings
render valuable information indicating that there was a significant relationship between
a school principal’s EI and the school’s success as measured by the rating of school
principals who participated in the study. The study will enable further exploration into
the emotional cognitive and psychological structures of these vital managers in the
education sector using established HRD training programmes aimed at improving EI
and performance of school principals. |
