Abstract
The article proposes an approach to teaching entrepreneurship using the 4-component instrumental model of emotional intelligence (4EI model), which can be easily used in teaching and applied in business to form entrepreneurial competence. This approach differs from the existing approaches and contains a toolkit (questionnaire), which allows exploring the level and dynamics of the development of emotional intelligence through the construction of respondents’ emotional intelligence profiles. The article studies the individual’s behavioural characteristics based on advanced methods for classifying role terms and offers recommendations for building an optimal project team, taking into account the synergy of the members’ emotional profiles. This study aims to develop recommendations for the formation of a project team of youth and seniors, considering their emotional profiles. The study's practical significance is the ability to form effective business teams based on self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management of each team member. The possibility of building optimal entrepreneurial and/or project teams with the participation of two population groups with professional integration problems - seniors and youth - has been proven. The research was conducted in two European countries: Ukraine and Slovakia. The research encourages implementing effective techniques for developing emotional intelligence in the educational process of entrepreneurial competence formation.
