Emotional intelligence is strongly associated with the situational leadership profile.Research Limitations – The conclusions of a qualitative study could not be generalized for other’s circumstances but could support further research.Practical Implications – The interviewees perceive this connection between situational leadership and emotional intelligence when they note the importance of knowing how to manage conflicts, influence the team, and have emotional resilience and empathy.Originality/value – This research assumes that the combined use of situational leadership and emotional intelligence variables can guide the adoption of a management style aimed at achieving results at work and greater employee job satisfaction.
