    (Addis Ababa University, 2024-10) Zinet Seid; Teklegiorgis Assefa (PhD)
    The main objective of the study is to investigate the impact of project managers emotional intelligence on project success in the case of EEIG construction. Quantitative research approach with cross-sectional survey design was applied for this study. Data were gathered from 45 participant (project managers, assistant project managers and project coordinators) through structured questionnaires and google form (online survey) by using census sampling techniques. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression) with the help of statistical software SPSS version 25. The finding of the study explains that three of the independent variables such as self-awareness, self-management and social-awareness of project manager have a positive, moderate and significant relationship with project success. Whereas relationship management of project managers have a positive but weak and insignificant impact for project success in EEIG construction. The researcher of the study strongly recommends that the organization should provide training that focuses on emotional intelligence skills for project managers as well as project teams. Further, a detailed investigation should be undertaken to see the impacts of emotional intelligence in a longitudinal manner. The study also recommends future studies to examine the impact of emotional intelligence other than construction sector. Key words: Project manager, Emotional Intelligence, Project Success
