Citations in the corpus

• Emotional Intelligence, Leadership Style, and Perceived Leadership Effectiveness (2009, background): “One study looked at a relationship between the MBTI and emotional intelligence (Higgs, 2001). The dominant function of intuition in the MBTI was found to be significantly and positively correlated with higher levels of emotional intelligence, as defined in a broader, more trait-focused perspective. ”
• Leadership competency profiles of successful project managers (2010, background): “Research has shown that these tests are only weakly related to leadership performance (Dulewicz and Higgs, 2003; Higgs, 2001).”
• Experiential learning and the acquisition of managerial tacit knowledge (2008, methodology): “This is known to be controversial (Higgs, 2001) and limits the nature of the methods that can be used to determine an instrument’s validity, and compare it with other instruments (Baron, 1996; Bartram, 1996).”
