Abstract:

 This meta-analysis study evaluated the data of 25 empirical studies conducted on the case of Türkiye in order to examine the relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership. The studies consisted of articles and theses published between 2005-2024. The results show that there is a moderately significant positive relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership EB  0.417. It has been determined that there is a significant variation between the studies, and therefore the random effects model is preferred. As a result of the meta-analysis, it was determined that the cumulative correlation was at the level of 42. In addition, analyses of publication bias revealed that the effects were reliable and that there was no publication bias. These findings suggest that emotional intelligence has a significant relationship with leadership skills, but this relationship is moderate. The studys focus on the case of Türkiye provided a regional perspective and increased the reliability of the findings.

 Bu meta-analiz çalışması, duygusal zekâ ve liderlik arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amacıyla Türkiye örneği üzerinden yapılan 25 ampirik çalışmanın verilerini değerlendirmiştir. Çalışmalar, 2005-2024 yılları arasında yayımlanan makaleler ve tezlerden oluşmuştur. Elde edilen sonuçlar, duygusal zekâ ile liderlik arasında pozitif yönde orta düzeyde EB  0,417 anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışmalar arasında önemli bir varyasyon olduğu tespit edilmiş ve bu nedenle rastgele etkiler modeli tercih edilmiştir. Meta-analiz sonucunda kümülatif korelasyonun 42 seviyesinde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, yayın yanlılığına dair yapılan analizler, etkilerin güvenilir olduğunu ve yayın yanlılığının olmadığını ortaya koymuştur. Bu bulgular, duygusal zekânın liderlik becerileriyle önemli bir ilişkiye sahip olduğunu, ancak bu ilişkinin orta düzeyde olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışmanın Türkiye örneğine odaklanması, bölgesel bir bakış açısı sunmuş ve bulguların güvenilirliğini artırmıştır.
