Patience, along with Assertiveness, Introverted or Extroverted and Attention to Detail can be easily measured by testing. The results of these test measure the values from very low to very high along an axis that typically fills in to be a bell curve for the population tested.
A couple of examples where patience or lack of it become important. Bookkeepers for example will do better if they are impatient (work fast) with high attention to detail (accurate). A person with a lot of patience and low attention to detail produces slow and sloppy work. Pilots for another example, perform better with moderate levels of patience, high attention to detail and moderate levels of extrovertedness. This results in a pilot who acts promptly in an emergency, does the right thing and communicates well with the rest of the crew.
Patience in itself is not a particularly great virtue in relationships or the workplace.
