Therefore, this study examines the relationship of individual’s personality, EI, and decision making styles (DM) as a predictor for selecting adaptive decision making that yields higher satisfaction outcomes. A large body of research supports that when EI knowledge is integrated during cognitive appraisal it yields better DM styles. An exploratory study investigates (n=95) students with no EI training versus students with EI training. Students with higher EI self-awareness skills use more adaptive DM styles regardless of situation or time pressures. Individuals that practice higher EI self-awareness interpret broader contextual meaning for a given situation that retrieves expanded choices during cognitive appraisal processing that may offer improved outcomes toward a desired goal. A high (80%) African-American sampling of students offers potential cultural/gender factors that may influence DM strategies. Extroversion was significantly higher in males versus female respondents. Prior research results were replicated in the study identifying distinct personality scales as predictors of DM styles.

Organizations are facing a critical shortage of transformative leadership skills to inspire followers to find creative solutions to an ever growing competitive, changing, and complex business climates. An exploratory study examines the social emotional learning readiness state of a student sample (n=44) enrolled in a college graduate level leadership program. Results indicate that the level of competencies in intrapersonal (self-regard) skills and interpersonal (regard for others) are related to students' selfassessment of readiness to effectively lead others. Implications are a need for deploying more rigorous social emotional learning and transformative leadership training standards within programs to promote higher soft skill developmental growth and for sustainability toward achieving organization success.

This is a significant problem because markets are rapidly changing. Future leaders need broader skill sets to assess predictable market trends, respond to economic uncertainty, and for realigning organization's resources for sustaining financial growth. The author draws from practitioner and academic literature. A 4-phased business-marketing convergence model (missing, disconnected, intersected, and interlocked) is offered to help identify a business's current baseline state and progressive improvements. Implications for ongoing research is to address the future skill set shortages of leaders, employees, and for course development within the educators.
