Summary/Abstract: Emotional intelligence (EI) refers to qualities and skills beyond traditional intellectual and technical competencies. EI proved to be an essential skill that goes alongside leadership skills, positively impacting organizational behaviors and business outcomes and influencing overall work performance. EI is important in organizational settings in three ways: the leader’s EI, the employee’s EI, and the emotional climate of groups and teams. Few studies showed that happier people produce more GDP, so the positive effects are countable in business. People have different levels of EI, but nowadays, workplaces do not focus on developing such soft skills yet. However, we can see that the development of EI could be beneficial. One possible way to develop EI is using coaching hypnosis, which has been used in the workplace to improve organizational skills. This paper examines hypnosis professionals’ feedback on hypnosis use for the development of emotional intelligence and employees’ skills. The study follows a qualitative methodology with a questionnaire built to investigate the opinions of professionals. The primary results show that hypnosis can be used to develop emotional intelligence and employee skills in general. The study aims to underline the effectiveness of hypnosis at workplaces and, based on this, to offer a potential development strategy for emotional intelligence to enhance company success based on employee success. In this paper, we’ll present concrete techniques based on professionals’ answers to improve leaders’ skills to be transformative and resonant leaders.
