This research explores the strategic integration of emotional intelligence (EI) within project management practices to enhance project success and team performance. Recognizing the pivotal role of EI in interpersonal dynamics and leadership effectiveness, this study proposes a comprehensive framework for aligning EI competencies with project management strategies. Through a synthesis of theoretical insights and empirical evidence, the framework aims to provide project managers with actionable guidance to leverage EI in optimizing team collaboration, conflict resolution, and stakeholder engagement. This research advances theoretical understanding and practical application by elucidating the nuanced interplay between EI and project management processes. Ultimately, the proposed framework offers a roadmap for fostering a project environment conducive to achieving organizational objectives.
