Are IT professionals sensitive and happy leaders in Poland?
- We assumed that high level of quality of life sense of IT leaders can lead to their better productivity and management of their IT teams. Therefore we investigate the correlations between leadership competencies, spirituality - sensitivity and quality of life of IT professionals in Poland, a transition economy. The research data is collected by an online survey with the use of our novel questionnaires among 420 IT professionals in the region of Lower Silesia of Poland. The results of this study indicate that leadership competencies correlate with spirituality and quality life of IT professionals in transition economies. The highest quality of life seems to be in companies where the managers manifest a high level of leadership competencies.
