Abstract

This paper aims to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and the demographic variables such as gender, age and work experience. The research was carried out in various organisations in Delhi NCR. A questionnaire design was used to explore whether there was an association between the different demographic variables and EI. The analysis found statistically significant association of gender and work experience with EI. Female and more experienced executives were found to have more EI score as compared to male and less experienced executives respectively. However, age and EI were found to have no association in between. The results of the study have been discussed and interpreted in light of the findings of the previous researchers. These findings have significant implications for the development of HR skills and behaviours at workplace.
