Abstract

This research delves into the pivotal role of emotional intelligence (EI) in fostering the health and well-being of faculty members in educational environments, particularly under the strains of online teaching and effective student management. It claims that faculty well-being affects students' emotional and academic development, making it essential for student achievement. The study expands well-being to include physical, mental, and emotional qualities associated with EI benefits. Aimed at examining the correlation between EI and the overall health and psychological well-being of educators, the research seeks to provide insights into how EI can serve as a tool to alleviate occupational stress and enhance mental health in the workplace. A comprehensive literature analysis and descriptive field survey of 80 Chennai educators from diverse educational institutions were done to attain its goals. The study analysed data using percentage analysis, weighted average, and correlation analysis using a professionally developed online questionnaire. Educational policy and practise should incorporate EI into faculty development programs to promote educators' well-being and increase student results.
