Cook’s, Nadella’s, and Musk’s Emotional Intelligence
Emotional intelligence (EI) plays a vital role in modern leadership, influencing the effectiveness, culture, and long-term success of organizations. This paper explores how three renowned CEOs—Tim Cook, Satya Nadella, and Elon Musk—utilize emotional intelligence in distinct ways. While each demonstrates high emotional intelligence, Cook and Nadella emphasize empathy and humility, creating supportive work environments, whereas Musk’s inconsistent emotional expression both aids innovation and sparks controversy, revealing the complex role of emotional intelligence in leadership.
