The article presents a theoretical analysis of the relationship between emotional intelligence and work motivation of employees in modern organisations. Based on the systematisation of empirical research data, key mechanisms of influence of emotional intelligence components on various aspects of the motivational sphere of workers have been identified. The mediating factors of this relationship and their specificity in organisations of different types are determined. A meta-analysis of the results of 157 independent studies covering more than 42,000 respondents was conducted, which confirmed stable correlations between emotional intelligence and work motivation indicators. Special attention is paid to the differentiation of the influence of intrapersonal and interpersonal emotional intelligence on intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. It was revealed that the most pronounced relationships are observed in innovative companies, while the least pronounced are in highly formalised organisations. Scientifically based recommendations are offered for using developments in the field of emotional intelligence to optimise personnel motivation systems and improve organisational effectiveness. Practical programmes for developing emotional intelligence as a tool for managing work motivation are presented.
