The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of emotional intelligence leadership of principals on job satisfaction of Chinese teachers and the mediating effects of organizational commitment among the relationship of the two factors. Chapter 2 analyzed the theoretical background and previous studies that the study of emotional intelligence leadership of principals in China has not been started systematically. But the streams of studies of principal’s leadership are similar in China and Korea has been confirmed. This study assumed that the emotional intelligence leadership of principals has an positive impact on teachers' job satisfaction based on the previous studies of Korea. In addition, this study established a causal relationship between the variables of teachers‘s job satisfaction and organizational commitment which represent the effectiveness of the organization based on the previous studies. On the other hand, the study simplified the four factors of emotional intelligence leadership of principal: the ability of self-awareness, self-management skills, social awareness, relationship management skills into personal competence and social competence and set a more differentiated research model to verify the mediating effects of the three factors of teachers' organizational commitment: affective commitment , continuous commitment and normative commitment.
In chapter 3, A questionnaire survey of 200 copies was assigned by type of school(elementary school, secondary school, high school) in Heilongjiang Province of China. Chapter 4 applied descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis to verify the mediating effects of the three factors of organizational commitment: affective commitment, continuous commitment, normative commitment on the influence of the personal competence and social competence on teacher’s job satisfaction respectively. The results of the analysis showed that teacher’s job satisfaction is directly proportional to the emotional intelligence leadership of principal and this relationship is partially mediated by affective commitment. And the personal competence is partially mediated by the continuous commitment while the effect of the social competence is much greater comparing to other effects. In addition, the relationship between the social competence of principals of China and teacher’s job satisfaction was partially mediated by the normative commitment.
