Answer:
Learn as much from their behavior as possible, if you want to learn to have high EQ. Avoid them if they take you as their potential pet or tool. Just like talking to high IQ professionals. If you have the will to be like them in the future, learn on purpose. Otherwise, if you are used to pop TV shows, this interaction will hurt you.

In personal or social settings: You can relax and be your core self when with people with high emotional intelligence. The reason is, EI people are highly perceptive and deeply appreciate individuality and people who are true to their unique selves. You may come away feeling valued, respected and "seen" after being with an EI person. At work: EI people generally have polished manners. They are graceful, and are usually highly aesthetic and can be found in any work field but especially in the fields of music, film, art, design, writing, etc. Also in business and professions that call for negotiation, diplomacy, and strategy. When meeting them in the work world, the strategies you want to deploy are truthfulness and respect for dignity and sentience.

No strategy needed. Really (no sarcasm intended), you just need to speak and they will get it. That is definitional EQ.

My EI scores are high so I will tell you what I like, because I doubt all people in any particular group will be alike and answer the same way. I will, nonetheless, use the "royal we" in my response. 1. Be authentic. We know when you're faking. If you're authentic, there's a much higher chance we'll make the effort back to you. 2. Relax. People with high EQ's can "read" you and energy is contagious. If you give us a bad vibe, we won't want to engage with you more than necessary. Relax and be natural. (See Point #1)

Be honest, they'll see thru you otherwise.

IMO the same way you should really interact with anyone. Don't be oversensitive or read into their behavior, and instead prompt them or wait for them to explain any unexpected behavior before attributing any meaning to it. You don't know of any reason why anything you are doing is wrong, and if they or anyone else does they should simply tell you. Simple right?

Check yourself to make sure you have some understanding of what goal they are trying to achieve by communicating with you. Are they trying to fulfill an emotional need, what is that emotional need? For practical conversations: what specifically is the person aiming to achieve.
Christopher Ammons
Make them talk as much as possible. Respond with laughs and gestures of enthusiasm but less words.
Joyce Yang
Respect their boundaries and their emotional dignity. Same as with anyone else.

There are none, because none of your strategies will work. A better question is How can people with high emotional intelligence manipulate people who don't have that?
