The experts say individuals with the highest EQ's excel at four interrelated skills:

• the ability to persist and stay motivated in the face of frustration,
  
• the ability to control impulses and delay gratification,
  
• the ability to control their emotions, regulate moods and keep distress from swamping one's ability to think,
  
• the ability to empathise with others and to bring hope.

Being aware of one's own self-mastery, reflecting on the emotional states we are in at any given time, has been praised as a virtue since the time of Plato. Sophrosyne, a Greek word meaning "care and intelligence in conducting one's life; a tempered balance and wisdom", probably best describes what we mean by the modern day term emotional intelligence.
"These skills are exemplified by effective leaders," says John Sosik, a management professor at Pennsylvania State University in Malvern. "EQ really is old wine in a new bottle. It's about self-awareness and empathy, and those are skills any leader needs in building a successful organization."
