DUYGUSAL ZEKÂ: TARİHSEL GELİŞİMİ VE ÖRGÜTLER İÇİN ÖNEMİNE KAVRAMSAL BİR BAKIŞ

Öz

Duygusal zekâ kavramı üzerinde yapılan çalışmalar, genelde, psikoloji ve sosyoloji
bilim dallarında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Her bilim dalında, duygusal zekâ kavramı çok
değişik açılardan ele alınmıştır. Her ne kadar duygusal zekâ kavramı hakkında geçen 15
yıllık süre içerisinde bir çok düşünce ortaya atılmış ise de, bu kavram psikoloji biliminin
bir o kadar geniş konuları arasında ortaya çıkmış ve gelişmiştir. Araştırmacıların
duygusal zekâ kavramına yaklaşım biçimleri, bu kavramı iki farklı model içerisinde ele
almalarına neden olmuştur. Bu yaklaşımların oluşturduğu modellerin ilki “karma model”
olarak adlandırılmakta ve genellikle Goleman ile birlikte anılmaktadır. Duygusal
zekânın “karma model”i daha yaygın, daha bilinir olup ve bu kavramı daha geniş bir
çerçevede tanımlamaktadır. Duygusal zekâ kavramına diğer yaklaşım ise “yetenek tabanlı
model” çerçevesinde ele alınmaktadır. Salovey ve Mayer tarafından geliştirilen bu
model, duygusal zekâ kavramını daha dar bir çerçevede tanımlamakta ve yetenek kavramı
üzerinde durmaktadır. Duygusal zekânın bireyin yaşamına ve iş hayatına olumlu
yönde katkıda bulunduğunu ileri süren düşünceler akademisyenler, yöneticiler ve diğer
herkesin ilgisini çekmektedir. Bu çalışmanın ana amacı, duygusal zekâ kavramının ne
anlama geldiğini, tarihsel gelişimini ve bu kavram içerisinde geliştirilen iki temel modelini
ele almaktır. Ayrıca, duygusal zekâ kavramının örgütler için taşıdığı öneme de
değinilmektedir.
