Abstract

The primary objective of this research is to investigate the relationships between hotel managers’ emotional intelligence competences and transformational leadership giving emphasis on supervisor–subordinate interaction. Hotel managers that comprehend the importance of emotional intelligence are in a position to identify the needs and the feelings of their subordinates, to actually express their interest and work collectively. Participants were 149 employees representing 117 Greek and Cypriot hotel organizations. Findings indicate positive associations between supervisor’s intrapersonal and interpersonal emotional intelligence competencies and her/his transformational leadership in hotel organizations. Implications for management include that supervisors in modern hotel organizations should further develop emotional intelligence competencies and enhance their transformational leadership with focus on human resources development.
