Assessing the Emotional Intelligence Level of School Heads towards Crafting an Executive Development Program

Abstract

The study aimed to assess the perception of emotional intelligence among the school heads of a Catholic school in Jiangsu, China. The researchers used the descriptive method of research, carrying out the survey technique by means of questionnaires. The results suggest that the school heads have average emotional intelligence and an enhancement program on emotional intelligence could be proposed. The emotional self-expression ranking suggests that development progresses over time, highlighting the importance of interpersonal connections and compassion in fostering emotional intelligence.
