Sažetak
Emotional intelligence (EI) and the corporate culture influence the individual and group behavior. They have attracted many researches who claim that both EI and corporate culture are linked to organizational performances. However, there is no much evidence showing the impact of emotional intelligence on the corporate culture and how to integrate EI into corporate culture. Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to: (a) examine how emotional intelligence (EI) affects the corporate culture in light of motivation, work performance, and organizational behavior and (b) how to integrate EI into corporate culture to produce competitive advantages. Design/methodology/approach: Due to the lack of previous researches on the topic, this paper focuses on evidence of the applied literature on competencies related on EI and its impact on the corporate culture and organizational performances. The research is guided by three research questions: 1. Which forces at work and trends challenge organizational performance and make EI valuable to corporate culture (challenges and opportunities)? 2. How these challenges influence managers to integrate EI into corporate culture to produce competitive advantages (dimensions of EI)? 3. How to integrate EI into corporate culture (implementation)? Findings: The results show that EI competencies influence corporate culture in terms of creating more positive and proactive workplace that helps to bridge economic and human development. EI and corporate culture are linked to employees’ motivation, work performance and organizational behavior. Integrating EI competencies into corporate culture shapes the organizational identity, communication, and values, which contributes to organizational performances. Practical implications: This paper describes how EI impacts corporate culture to add values to organizational performance and competitiveness. Since EI affects the quality of employee relationship, managers will have to integrate EI competencies into the corporate culture to better manage individual and group emotional intelligence.
