The results of the study demonstrate a huge connection between EI and job performance, proposing that EI produces 31.9% difference in the performance of men and 26.7% in women’s job performance. This demonstrates however women are more Emotionally Intelligent than men, different components like age, salary, capability, identity qualities and so on may contribute more to their work performance. It drives the author to suggest the organisations to additionally examine components like personality traits, sociodemographic factors, and so forth alongside EI to discover what makes women better performers than men. The author suggests that the organizations should not differentiate between their employees on the basis of gender as the results of this research demonstrate that women are better performers than men. Organisations should consolidate EI as a part of recruitment and selection to employ individuals with high EI as it predicts better job performance, they ought to likewise incorporate EI as a part of training and development to improve the EI of the current employees to additionally enhance their individual performance which would lead to the growth of the organization.
