Genos emotional intelligence leadership assessments measure a leader’s demonstration of a set of emotional intelligence leadership competencies that underlie business success. Genos assessments are supported by a wealth of peer-reviewed research, and can be completed using our one-of-a-kind digital platform Genos Digital, or using thoughtfully designed PDFs.
Emotionally Intelligent Leadership
Leaders in business looking to improve their organization’s performance can do so by improving their emotional intelligence: that is, their skill at identifying, understanding and influencing emotion.
Leadership is fundamentally about facilitating performance. Research has proven that a leader’s emotional intelligence is key to their capacity to inspire high performance and employee engagement. Organizations with emotionally intelligent leaders gain a sustainable competitive advantage: a high performance culture and customer loyalty.
The Genos Emotional Intelligence Leadership model
The Genos model of emotionally intelligent leadership competencies is shown below. You see unproductive emotional states on the left, and productive emotional states on the right. In the center stand the emotional intelligence competencies that influence transition from unproductive to productive states.

Core emotional intelligence competencies
For instance, Inspiring Performance is important in leadership because leadership is fundamentally about facilitating the performance of others. Managing performance with emotional indifference, rules and key performance indicators usually produces an ‘expected’, result, rather than an ‘unexpected’ high performance result. Managing with Inspiring Performance empowers employees to continuously perform at a high level year-over-year.
