Abstract The study intends to figure out a relationship between the emotional intelligence, the satisfaction with life on the one hand and the work mentality and general job satisfaction of the Romanian teachers on the other hand. The study is going to find out if the emotional intelligence is correlated with positive attitude towards work and with a general job satisfaction of the teachers. The results show some differences between teachers’ work mentality, satisfaction with life and general job satisfaction in terms of emotional intelligence level.We could conclude that a good emotional intelligence of the teachers is correlated with a positive attitude toward work and with satisfaction with life and with work itself.
