It involves understanding and managing not only the technical aspects of a project but also the emotions and interpersonal dynamics within the team. Project managers with high EI can navigate challenges more effectively, communicate with empathy, and build positive relationships with team members and stakeholders.
By recognizing and regulating their own emotions and understanding the emotions of others, project managers can enhance team collaboration, resolve conflicts, and ultimately contribute to the project's overall success. In essence, emotional intelligence empowers project managers to lead with a holistic understanding of both the tasks at hand and the human elements involved in project execution.
