SANCHEZ-NUNEZ, María T; PATTI, Janet  y  LATORRE-POSTIGO, José Miguel. Developing emotional and social intelligence in an education leadership postgraduate program. Escritos de Psicología [online]. 2023, vol.16, n.1, pp.53-64.  Epub 17-Abr-2024. ISSN 1989-3809.  https://dx.doi.org/10.24310/espsiescpsi.v16i1.14754.

This exploratory study measures the impact of emotional intelligence training on educational leaders' skill development. Using a quasi-experimental methodological approach, the researchers evaluated the effectiveness of a postgraduate leadership program for aspiring leaders. The course was grounded in two models of emotional intelligence, a mixed model (Goleman, 2001) and the ability model from Mayer and Salovey (1997). The sample consisted of 45 aspiring leaders in urban New York City. The Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) and The Emotional Social Competency Inventory (ESCI) were the measurements used for evaluating results. The preliminary results conducted by paired sample t-tests showed positive statistically significant differences in all the variables of the ESCI and the LPI. Further analysis, with a quasi-experimental pre-posttest design, evaluated the effect of the cohort and maturation. Results showed positive statistically significant differences in all five leadership practices of the LPI, except in the practice of Challenge. Prospective school leaders' perception of their emotional intelligence competencies, measured by the ESCI, also demonstrated significant positive results in all variables except Self-Awareness. Awareness. In conclusion, the training program for aspiring leaders, consisting of emotion skill and competency development in both mixed and ability EI models, has demonstrated effectiveness in most EI and leadership variables. We recognize that aspiring leaders development will require more experience and practice. The study also notes that emotionally intelligent leaders' behaviors are often aligned with transformational leadership.
