Abstract: Leaders play a crucial role in institutions and attention must be inclined towards improvement in leadership styles for better decision-making in institutions. Due to their diverse roles, attitudes, behaviours, and emotions associated to different positions held by the leaders and the various roles played by them the leaders face various issues. It is evident from the research that there is a paradigm shift in the responsibilities of leaders. Government policy, rapid economic growth, the ubiquitous and society influence of communication and information technology, demands for more access, internationalisation, and globalisation are some of the factors that have led to a change in the institutions (Bolden et. al., 2012, Jones et. al., 2012; Skilbeck, 2001). It has discovered the following threats in institutions a developing number of people entering the system, changing job standards bringing new necessity and an emphasis on life-long learning and grooming, the need for high-order knowledge-based skills. It has been documented that solutions to these problems can be obtained through improvement in emotional intelligence and neuroleadership skills institutions. This empirical evidence suggests that there is hope not only for changing the organisation landscape but also for leveraging the leadership skills of current school leaders and improve the quality of learning for next generation.
