Book excerpt: Stewards of the profession and protectors of the nation, Army leaders have an immense responsibility to ensure the current and future success of the Army. This responsibility is less about the hard skills of cognitive intelligence, technical knowledge, and tactical proficiency and more about the soft skills of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence competencies parallel, enhance, and even enable the Army leader attributes and competencies. The Army leadership doctrine fails to identify a direct relationship between emotional intelligence competencies and the Army leader attributes and competencies, yet implies that emotional skills are an integral part of the characteristics and capabilities of an Army leader. This study examines the relationship between emotional intelligence competencies and the attributes and core competencies required of an Army leader. A clear understanding of the emotional intelligence requirements that Army leader's use in the act of leading creates a more balanced and comprehensive illustration of Army leader requirements. An understanding of the relationship between emotional intelligence and what is required of an Army leader can lead to modifications in Army leadership doctrine, leader assessments, professional Army leader development programs, and Army leader evaluation practices.
