BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Emotional competencies are integral to becoming a trusted and able professional accountant – someone who can combine analytical rigour with emotional maturity
(Helen Brand, Chief Executive of ACCA). An emotionally intelligent person is able to recognise, understand, manage, and reason with emotions – critical abilities when it comes to interpersonal communication – both in one’s personal life and in the workplace. The development of emotional intelligence is an intentional, active, and engaging process, and as such may be considered a skill set that can be learned. We will see how in order to succeed in a fast-evolving digital age, professional accountants need a rounded set of skills that go beyond technical knowledge, and these skills include emotional intelligence (ACCA report, 2019).
