Ellen Patnaude has always been fascinated by how a
person’s nature and nurture combined causes them to
interact with the people around them. She is a Detroit,
MI native and graduated from Alma College with a BA
in Biology & French. She thought she wanted to be
Jacques Cousteau, but her first few science-based jobs
pointed clearly towards working with people. She
worked for several years as a community organizer in
Indiana and Ohio. Returning to Michigan in 2005, her
reputation followed her for challenging people to see
and be a better version of themselves, and the phone
started ringing. Since then, Ellen has built an
internationally recognized company supporting
individuals and teams in improving everyday important
interactions. She recently published a new book, “I Thought You Knew... Confessions of a Chronic Assumer (and How to Stop Guessing your way through Important Interactions)”, available through your favorite online bookseller or her company website.
Ellen is a credentialed PCC-level Executive Coach (from the International Coach Federation
(ICF), and certified in multiple assessment tools, including the AcuMax Index®, MRG’s
Leadership Effectiveness Analysis LEA360® and Leadership Culture® assessments, Genos
International’s Emotional Intelligence toolkit, and Equine-Guided Learning practices from
Innovative Horizons. Her company has recently been certified as an LGBTQ+ owned business.
Ellen lives in mid-Michigan with her wife, Dani, at least one and as many as three teenagers at
any given time, three cats, and a dog with way too much energy.
