The study target population of 97 consisted of project managers, contractors (included subcontractors), and consultants from which a sample of 78 was drawn. The study used a five-point scale questionnaire as the main instrument of data collection. The study obtained a Cronbachs Alpha Coefficient of 0.759 for emotional intelligence and project success 0.891 which shows that the instruments were reliable. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics and data was presented in frequency tables, pie charts and bar graphs. The direct Hypothesis was tested using liner regression at 0.05 level of significance to determine the degree and direction of the relationship between emotional intelligence (independent variable) and project success (the dependent variable) variables. Pearson product correlation results revealed that the relationship was positive, moderate in strength and statistically significant (r=.463, p <.05). The results also showed that 21.4% (r2 =.214, p < 0.05) in project success was attributed to emotional intelligence. The study recommends the key statutory bodies such as RDA seek training and include emotional intelligence in their core competence requirements for their managers, supervisors, and employees. This study was only conducted in Lusaka district hence future studies are encouraged to cover other provinces and projects to compare the findings.

Impact of emotional intelligence and personality traits on managing team performance in virtual interface

This research paper explores the implications of emotional intelligence and the Big Five personality model on virtual team effectiveness. It illustrates how emotional intelligence and Big Five personality traits help team members better understand interpersonal relationships and develop constructive virtual teams. The widespread use of virtual team meetings for collaborative work over in-person interaction with diverse personalities creates discord and trust among team members, limiting overall productivity. A quantitative analysis approach is used, with hypotheses tested and a series of multiple linear regression analyses performed on data collected from relevant industries using convenient sampling. The findings show that the Big Five personality affects the virtual team's trust and collaboration parameters. However, the relationship between personality traits and team effectiveness is mediated by emotional intelligence. Also, it is explored that having control over emotional intelligence or developing emotional intelligence would improve team performance while managing and working with a diverse group of people.

The Impact of Emotional Intelligence on Job Security: the Mediating Role of Citizenship

Impact of emotional intelligence on work performance: The mediating role of occupational stress among nurses.

An occupational stress was reported as an inhibitor of optimal performance among nurses. Emotional intelligence (EI) has emerged as a successful behavioral buffer against occupational stress and as a facilitator for better performance. This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between nurses' EI and their work performance; and to examine the mediating role of occupational stress. A predictive correlational design was adopted. Self-reported questionnaires were administered to 391 full-time bedside nurses recruited from one of the big hospitals in Saudi Arabia, between April and June 2021. Data were coded and analyzed using IBM SPSS version 25.0. Simple and multiple linear regression analyses were used to test the hypotheses. The significance level for all tests was set at p≤ 0.05. Bonferroni correction method was used to control the family-wise error rate. The findings revealed an affirmative association between nurses' EI and work performance (β= 0.69, p< 0.001; r2 = 0.483). Additionally, an inverse association was established between nurses' EI and their perception of occupational stress (β= -0.54, p< 0.001; r2 = 0.286), and between nurses' perception of occupational stress and work performance (β= -0.52; p< 0.001; r2 = 0.226). Additionally, our results showed that occupational stress played a mediating role in the relationship between nurses' EI and work performance. This study presented a novel framework that includes two factors affecting work performance among nurses in Saudi Arabia. Our results suggest that EI is vital for effective work performance among nurses. Additionally, EI was found to be a useful coping strategy against occupational stress. EI has been described as a valuable asset for better performance and effective group cohesiveness among nurses. Optimal nurses᾽ performance leads to meeting patients᾽ needs and organizational goals.
