Abstract. The article considers the essence of the concept of «emotional flexibility» and identifies its main elements and role in implementing management functions in banking institutions, particularly in decision-making. First, we substantiated the necessity of developing emotional flexibility to strengthen the functions performed by the leader. We established that the degree of development of this experience depends on how much the leader can act in a situation of uncertainty, quickly adapt to change, and find new opportunities and ways to make decisions. After all, in banking management, management decisions are pretty risky and challenging to predict because the financial sector is quite sensitive to socio-economic and political factors. Second, we characterized the mental models that guide any human activity. We consider the term «emotional flexibility of the leader» as a set of skills based on the ability to perceive their own emotions, label and understand them, and then consciously move forward. It also means recognizing stress and getting out of it, deciding how to act according to personal values and goals. Thus, we considered the categories that are the basis for the formation of emotional flexibility, namely: emotional self-awareness, the ability to manage emotions, the ability to control emotions, empathy, establishing and maintaining relationships effectively. We found that the developed emotional flexibility is inherent in leaders who can understand and direct their feelings, quickly identify subordinates’ emotions, and maintain effective social communication. Finally, we focused on the benefits of the developed emotional flexibility of the head of enterprises, institutions, organizations.The emotional flexibility of the leader lies in his conscious readiness to implement the emotional competencies necessary for the effective implementation of professional activities and solving social problems. This will contribute to professional development and personal development, the actualization of adaptive abilities, preservation of health and prevention of «professional burnout», harmonious functioning in society, life achievements. Constantly increasing the importance of the human factor requires additional research in emotional flexibility as another source of improving the efficiency and effectiveness of banking institutions.Keywords: emotional flexibility; emotional intelligence; human factor; leader; manager; management; banking management; decision making.
