“…Walter et al (2012) obtained a similar pattern of results. Their studies demonstrated that a branch of EI, emotion recognition, had a positive relationship with leadership emergence through its effects on task coordination, at least for people who also had a high level of extroversion.…”

“…The number of subordinates and several personality traits (positive and negative affectivity and agreeableness) were controlled for. In two related studies, empathic accuracy exhibited stronger positive associations with the task coordination behavior and leadership emergence of extraverted students, but not introverted students, in study groups (Walter et al 2012). Cognitive intelligence, the other Big Five traits of personality, and gender were controlled for.…”

Emotional intelligence (EI) is a set of abilities that pertain to emotions and emotional information. EI has attracted considerable attention among organizational scholars, and research has clarified the definition of EI and illuminated its role in organizations. Here, I define EI and describe the abilities that constitute it. I evaluate two approaches to measuring EI: the performance-based and self-report approaches. I review the findings about how EI is associated with work criteria, organizing the findings according to three overarching models: the validity generalization, situation-specific, and moderator models. The support for the latter two models suggests that the organizational context and employee dispositions should be considered in order to fully explain how EI relates to criteria. I identify controversies in this area, describe how findings address some controversies, and propose future research to address those that remain. I conclude by listing best practices for future research on the role of EI in organizations.

“…In a longitudinal study of self-managing teams, empathy predicted leadership emergence through its effect on emotional and cognitive skills and behaviors (Wolff et al, 2002). In another study, emotion recognition and extraversion related interactively with an individual's task coordination behaviors, which in turn influenced the likelihood of emerging as a leader (Walter et al, 2012). Emotional abilities played complementary roles in a longitudinal analysis of leader networks; the abilities to perceive and manage emotions facilitated emergence of relationship leaders, and the abilities to use and understand them facilitated emergence of task leaders (Emery, 2012).…”

The emergence of individual and collective leadership in task groups: A matter of achievement and ascription

This review synthesizes conceptual and empirical research on the emergence of individual and collective leadership in task groups, and proposes avenues for leadership research. To advance multilevel study of leadership emergence, including emergence of distributed and shared leadership, the paper reviews research on individual leader emergence, structured around two identified theoretical mechanisms-one of leadership achievement (i.e., based on functional behaviors) and another of leadership ascription (i.e., based on nominal characteristics). These approaches compete to elucidate individual leader emergence in task groups as influenced by individual traits, states, and behaviors. However, current approaches to leadership in groups rely on functional achievement explanations of how collective leadership emerges, influenced by positive states and behaviors. Attention to ascription-achievement mechanisms in leadership emergence is warranted at the collective level of analysis.
