The objective of the thesis is to systematically present the publication trends related to Emotional intelligence, Virtual Teams and Job performance, which is interdisciplinary research contributing to the refinement and extension of existing theories in organizational behaviour, psychology and management. This study performed a bibliometric analysis to investigate article research between 2010 and 2024. Within the scope of the study, 12912 publications were included in the analysis. Of these, 9146 were articles and 2490 other publication types. The analysis included 8291 English articles. The study provides a structured literature review on the keywords; emotional intelligence (EI), Virtual teams (VT), and job performance (JP). The researchers adopted the Web of Science (WoB) database in the analysis and use the Bibliometric R package.
A bibliometric analysis reveals trends in research publications, showing Emotional Intelligence as an emerging topic and trends in research as virtual teams were not visible. However, it seems that Virtual Teams are still a niche area of study. The keyword “Emotional Intelligence” stands out as the most frequently used keyword. This research contributes to the field by exploring current developments in the fields, highlighting current gaps in the literature, and recommending future research in this field. The fact that the keywords “Emotional Intelligence”, “Job performance”, and “Remote Teams” are frequently included in the literature showing that interdisciplinary academic studies in these fields are of great importance.
As a whole, the study aims to offer an overview of the bibliometric methodology and step-by-step guidelines for conducting bibliometric analysis for business research.
