Mixed methods research was adopted to explore the impact of EI on employee job performance and job satisfaction. The convenience (non-probability) sampling method was used to conduct the survey and collect the data from participants. The survey was conducted using a questionnaire including demographic profiles, the Wong & Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (Wong & Law, 2002), self-evaluate job performance, and job satisfaction scale. Regression and descriptive statistics data analysis techniques were employed to analyse quantitative data. Thematic data analysis was used to identify the themes from the interview data. This mixed methods research investigated relationship between EI, job performance, and job satisfaction. It found that employees’ EI impacts their job performance and job satisfaction. It also revealed that relationship between the leaders’ EI and the employees’ job performance and job satisfaction.
