One concept of social intelligence referred to it as the “ability to read nonverbal cues or make accurate social inferences’ and ‘one’s ability to accomplish relevant objectives in specific social settings. Based on this, the purpose of this research was to examine the relationship between social intelligence with effective influence among physical education expertise in Isfahan education organizations. For this purpose, a total of 48 physical education expertise in Isfahan education organizations participated in this research. There were 37 men and 11 women, and their ages ranged from 35-46 years-old. To data collection, all subjects filled in the Silvera Social Intelligence Scale (2001) and the Survey of effective influence (SEI). The results showed that the correlation between overall social intelligence scores and overall effective influence scores was significant at the level of P<0.001. Furthermore, the correlation between overall social intelligence scores and effective influence sub-scales was significant at the level of P<0.001. Based on our results, the differences between gender and experience with social intelligence and effective influence were not significant (P>0.05) but there was significant difference between academic level and social intelligence (P<0.05). Thus, the strength of the correlations obtained in the present research suggests that the overall social intelligence has a significant role in effective influence and its sub-scales.
