Impact of Collective Intelligence and Collective Emotional Intelligence on the Psychological Safety of the Organizations

Abstract

This article critically analyses concepts and models in support of collective intelligence (CI) and collective emotional intelligence (CEI) and their potential impacts on the organizations’ teams. CI and CEI have claimed to have an effect on the substantial range of activities, including employee initiation, participation, performance, loyalty and decision-making. Review of literature confirms that people with high degrees of cognitive and emotional intelligence display a multitude of abilities. Dynamic personal relationships, successful teams, analytical expertise and higher mental health are present in people with high intelligence quotient (IQ) and emotional quotient (EQ). Thus, this research tries to examine the combination of factors that affect the psychological safety by trying to create hypotheses between its antecedents and team psychological safety and then tries to create the analytical relationship among them.
