        abstract = {The rapidly evolving educational and organizational landscapes of the 21st century demand educators and leaders who are not only competent in subject knowledge and administrative skills but also deeply aware, emotionally balanced, and psychologically resilient. In this context, mindfulness and emotional intelligence (EI) have emerged as transformative psychological constructs with significant implications for leadership effectiveness, teacher wellbeing, classroom climate, and institutional development. This research paper critically examines the interplay between mindfulness and emotional intelligence among educators and leaders through a psychological research perspective, highlighting how these constructs contribute to cognitive clarity, emotional stability, ethical decision-making, and enhanced interpersonal relationships.},
