Therefore, the performance of lecturers must be managed properly in order to be successful and efficient in achieving educational goals, and to ensure an increase in the quality of higher education. To obtain optimal lecturer performance at a private university, it is necessary to pay attention to the factors of emotional intelligence and cognitive abilities.
