However, when the worker perceives his leader as spiritually and emotional intelligent, he promotes greater autonomy for this action. Therefore, the objective of this research is to verify the influence of leaders’ emotional and spiritual intelligence on team performance through the job crafting. Methodology. To measure this phenomenon, a quantitative survey was carried out. The scales used are: Leader Spiritual Intelligence Scale and Leader Emotional Intelligence Scale (adapted to measure leaders’ intelligence) and Job Crafting Scale. The sample is made up of hospital workers (Brazil, N = 212 and Portugal, N = 222). Findings. The results revealed internal consistency of the scales; the hierarchical association model corresponded to the theoretical and empirical perspective; Brazilian professionals had higher scores. The intelligences regarding the cause of the job crafting propose a productive perspective in the behaviour of their teams. Originality. It is the first time that used an adapted scale about spiritual intelligence and emotional intelligence to measure leadership.
