Purpose- This study aims to examine the effects of emotional intelligence on organizational financial effectiveness, with the moderating effect of financial self-efficacy. Research Methodology/Approach- To examine how financial self-efficacy moderates the relationship between emotional intelligence and financial effectiveness, data were collected from a sample of 272 managers in Pakistani organizations using a 7-point Likert scale questionnaire. SPSS and the graphical application AMOS were used to evaluate the collected data and structural equation modeling (SEM) techniques were used to evaluate the hypothesis. Findings- The results reveal that emotional intelligence significantly affects an organization’s financial effectiveness. Emotional intelligence includes key components such as self-awareness, self-management, motivation, empathy, and social skills, all of which contribute significantly to an organization’s financial effectiveness. Results show that it is important for organizations to measure managers’ emotional intelligence before employing them. Moreover, research shows that the association between organizational financial effectiveness and emotional intelligence is significantly moderated by financial self-efficacy. Limitation and Implication- The study has limitations, such as focusing solely on individual emotional intelligence (EI) and financial effectiveness rather than considering team-level EI or qualitative aspects of EI. However, it confirms a link between EI and financial effectiveness, particularly when moderated by financial self-efficacy. These findings underscore the importance of EI and financial self-efficacy, suggesting avenues for future research. Originality/Value- This research is the first to examine the relationship between emotional intelligence, financial self-efficacy, and financial effectiveness. This study enhances the behavioral finance literature by exploring how managerial emotional intelligence influences decision-making processes, thus clarifying its role in improving the financial effectiveness of an organization.
... Knowledge-sharing behaviors (KSBs) of individuals are associated with the interpersonal communication and interaction of humans especially at the workplace through which they share task-related knowledge and information to complete their official tasks efficiently and to benefit others (i.e., peers, seniors, and subordinates) (Nurhidayati & Zaenuri, 2023;Wang & Noe, 2010). These behaviors (KSBs) are associated with team creativity (Edeh et al., 2022), open innovation , team effectiveness (Jamshed et al., 2017), and organizational learning (Antunes & Pinheiro, 2020;Zhang et al., 2023). To minimize this negative thinking of the employees about sharing knowledge with others as they perceive that it may hinder their career development and growth (Fauzi, 2023), organizations need an environment that motivates, encourages, and rewards KSBs (Heisig et al., 2016;Sa'adah & Rijanti, 2022;Shamim et al., 2019) because it offers organizational economic and strategic growth (Arsawan et al., 2022;Sahibzada et al., 2023). ...

Purpose-Drawing from social cognitive theory, the present study examines the impact of knowledge-oriented leadership on knowledge sharing behaviors (tacit and explicit). Moreover, this study examines the intervening effect of self-efficacy between the relationship of knowledge-oriented leadership and knowledge sharing behaviors (tacit and explicit). Furthermore, this study investigates the moderating role of emotional intelligence between the relationship of knowledge-oriented leadership and self-efficacy. Study Design/Methodology/Approach-Two hundred and ninety-five permanent employees of service sector organizations (i.e., banking, telecommunication, and media) voluntarily participated in a data collection survey which was conducted using a three-week temporal separation method. Data was analyzed using statistical software, i.e., SPSS and Smart-PLS to assess the reliability and validity of the constructs and test the direct, indirect, moderation, and moderated mediation relationships of the variables. Findings-The findings showed that knowledge-oriented leadership strongly predicts tacit and explicit knowledge-sharing behaviors, and self-efficacy mediated this relationship. Moreover, results support the moderation of emotional intelligence between knowledge-oriented leadership and self-efficacy. Research Limitations-To bring a deeper understanding of how organizational and personal factors influence the knowledge-sharing behaviors of the employees, future research should investigate the potential mediating mechanisms, i.e., trust in leadership and learning goal orientation and the moderating role of psychosocial safety climate using the specific leadership style, i.e., adaptive, and humble leadership. Originality/Novelty-The findings of this study suggest that organizations focus on the enhancement of knowledge-related skills of the management which encourages the subordinates for higher self-efficacy regarding the sharing of tacit and explicit knowledge. Moreover, this study highlighted the importance of emotional intelligence for the enhancement of self-efficacy; also, emotional intelligence indirectly helps individuals demonstrate knowledge-sharing behaviors (tacit and explicit).
... In the healthcare arena, and in the broader world of business, Trait EI is a significant predictor of leadership status (leader vs non-leader; Coskun et al., 2018;Siegling et al., 2014), as well as of leadership effectiveness (a leader's performance in influencing and guiding the activities of his or her team toward achievement of shared goals; Jamshed et al., 2017;Miao et al., 2021;Walter et al., 2011). Chambers and Exworthy (2020) explored the personal characteristics of a subset of hospital CEOs who had distinguished themselves from peers because of their long tenures. ...
... Though a growing strand of literature have investigated various factors influencing team performance, in recent time research scholars (Jamshed, 2018;Jamshed et al., 2017;Kaur et al., 2016;Shin et al., 2016) have recommended studying emotional intelligence and knowledge sharing. ...

Purpose This study aims to examine emotional intelligence (EI) and organizational communication as predictors of teamwork effectiveness among bank employees in Nigeria. The Nigerian banking industry suffered financial crisis, leading to depression, following inability to meet standards of the regulatory body. With current emphasis on teamwork for business growth, literatures suggest EI and organizational communication as predictors for teamwork effectiveness. Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional survey of 230 bank employees, selected through multistage sampling, using a valid and reliable structured questionnaire that incorporated all research variables was used for data collection. A questionnaire containing the research scales was administered and data were collected. Findings Positive relationship was established between perceived teamwork effectiveness and components of EI, including self-emotion appraisal, other’s emotion appraisal (OEA), actual use of emotion and regulation of emotion (ROE) and perceived organizational communication effectiveness. Hierarchical regression analysis reveals that age, gender, job status and educational qualification jointly predicted teamwork effectiveness, although only educational qualification contributed significantly. The inclusion of EI dimensions showed that only OEA, actual use of emotion and ROE were significant predictors, along with organizational communication. Research limitations/implications Data collected were based on self-report of the participants. It is advised that more objective measures could be devised. The findings are limited to the banking industry and cannot be generalized to other work organizations. The research was conducted in Nigeria, a developing country; thus, the findings may not be generalized to the developed nations. Practical implications Educational factor could be applied in engaging team members. On the alternative, commercial banks should invest in periodic training programs to enhance employee communication skills and EI. Human resources personnel could use these research outcomes to enhance the selection and placement of employees in commercial banks. By these research findings the adequacies of some psychological theories in explaining team effectiveness have been empirically implicated, and the literature on team effectiveness has been increased. Consequently, commercial banks should invest in periodic training programs to enhance employee communication skills and EI, and use these findings to enhance selection and placement in Nigerian banks. It is evident from the results of the present study that the more educated team members are the more likely their teams would be effective in the teamwork. However, periodic training (both off the job and on the job) on EI and its pertinent dimensions, and adoption of appropriate communication styles, could be used to compliment educational deficiencies. Thus, the less educated persons could function adequately in teams if they receive the empowerment. The human resources managers are to note that new bank employees would be better team players when there are adequate orientated on programs on how towards effective to communicate at teamwork functions. Social implications It is evident from these research findings that EI and appropriate organizational communication are behavioral tools that could enhance team interaction and consequently improve team effectiveness. Originality/value It is revealed how teams could be made effective through the combined factors of EI and organizational communication, especially among bank employees in Nigeria. Unlike some other studies, this research discovered the specific EI factors that could enhance team effectiveness, not just general EI. It empirically validated some theories that are proposed in relation to EI and organizational communication. This study showcased how teams could be made more effective in the banking sector of the Nigerian economy.
... Third, leadership and communication are critical for interdisciplinary knowledge-sharing in particular (Edmondson and Nembhard 2009). Accordingly, studies show that interdisciplinary integration is fostered when managers are sensitive to the culture and needs of different areas (Jamshed, Mohd Nor, and Abu Bakar 2017;Korb, Geißler, and Strauß 2015;Rosen and Callaly 2005). This was also shown specifically for the collaboration in art-projects and theaters. ...

This study analyzes self–other agreement in leadership communication and its relation to knowledge integration across the artistic, technical and administration areas in theaters. Results of a cross-sectional survey among 177 managers and 249 employees of German theaters reveal that managers consider themselves attentive to all areas, but particularly sensitive to their own area. In contrast, employees assess leadership communication quality rather mixed and especially communication of managers from the artistic area as mediocre. Furthermore, results of a polynomial regression with surface analysis indicate that managers can reduce knowledge integration problems across the areas when being sensitive to employees in areas other than their own.
... However, as described above, there are clear differences between the artistic, technical and administration areas, which should also be reflected in the relationships. Research has shown that collaboration across areas is better if managers are sensitive to each area (Jamshed, Mohd Nor, & Bakar, 2017). Therefore, it is important, for example, that managers define common problems (Epstein, 2005), acknowledge different work cultures in different areas (Korb et al., 2015) or do not claim exclusive authority of one area over other areas (Rosen & Callaly, 2005). ...

This study makes a first attempt to investigate the influence of leadership communication on internal integration when employees maintain relationships with multiple managers in different functional areas of an organization. In a cross-sectional survey, 388 employees in German theatres assessed perceived internal integration between artistic, technical and administration areas as well as perceived leadership communication quality (PLCQ) with managers in each area which they had a relation with. Results show that the better and the more consistent employees perceive the communication of managers from the different areas, the more employees will perceive internal integration across the areas.
... Research scholars (e.g. Jamshed, Nor, & Bakar, 2017;Jayasingam, Ansari, Ramayah, & Jantan, 2013;Kaur, Shri, & Mital, 2016;Shin, Kim, Choi, & Lee, 2016;Zhang et al., 2019) realized that the cultural factor boosts the interaction amongst leader-member relationships. Thus, team culture is a contributing factor and a crucial ambient to suppress turnover intentions. ...
... This may be attributed to the leader's behaviour as leaders with high emotional intelligence are well aware of their subordinate negative job attitudes, and they attempt to eliminate such intention within their teams as the turnover leads to higher cost and influences the quality of patient care services (e.g. Abu Elanain, 2014; Fujino et al., 2015;Jamshed et al., 2017). Therefore in health care, the active emotional abilities of leaders create a significant impact in declining the nurse's intent to leave. ...

Implications for Nursing Management The study provides valuable insight for health management organizations to focus on factors that decreases the turnover intent of nurses. Considering a global shortage of nurses; nursing management must consider crucial aspects of the work environment and plan interventions to restrain nursing turnover intentions.
... As teaching career is recognized as one of the central profession (Ishak, Iskandar & Ramli 2010), for academicians; EI could exhibit to be a dynamic feature of individual's nature and personality. Leaders possessing emotional intelligence skills creates emotional realization and sense of responsibility among workers which enables them to respond positively to diverse situations (Jamshed, Nor & Bakar 2017). By implementing EI skills, academicians could effectively manage the pressure of the profession, comprehend the social cues and better improve their personal domain. ...

Knowledge Sharing is a significant facilitator of performance in organizations through teams for gaining competitive advantage. However, very few studies investigated the relationship between knowledge sharing and team environment with a subsequent effect on team performance. For effective team performance, team members are encouraged to exchange their varied knowledge, opinions, paradigms, and expertise required to accomplish team tasks. Therefore, this study attempts to investigate the effect of knowledge sharing on team performance through the lens of team culture. A quantitative study by employing survey method was conducted by collecting data from healthcare teams working in healthcare institutions of Pakistan. The study examines the direct and indirect effect of team culture on team performance by statistically testing the research model by utilizing the technique of structural equation modeling. Results from response by106 teams comprised of 397 members’ exhibit that teams with visible performance indicators depict strong team cultures which deemed important for sharing knowledge amongst team members. The study findings provide useful insights and contribute to the literature of team performance and knowledge sharing in the healthcare sector and urge administrators to encourage team members to share their expertise enhancing the performance of teams.
