Patterson, Mike: - Dr. Mike Patterson is a consultant, educator, and speaker committed to helping leaders and teams achieve more by working better together. In addition to his work with clients, Mike teaches in the doctoral programs at Pepperdine University's Graduate School of Education and Psychology, as well as California Baptist University, and is a frequent conference and keynote speaker. Mike began his career as a U.S. Army officer, and then served in a variety of commercial roles at TAP and Takeda Pharmaceuticals. More recently, he was a principal and thought leader at Core Strengths, the global talent development company and creator of the world's first digital platform to promote collaboration and improve communication. While at Core Strengths, Mike became a master facilitator of all learning based on the SDI 2.0, a valid and reliable assessment that helps people build their relationship intelligence (RQ). His previous book, Have a Nice Conflict: How to Find Success and Satisfaction in the Most Unlikely Places, coauthored with Tim Scudder and Kent Mitchell, is a business fable loosely based on Mike's life and experiences. Widely acclaimed, HANC was the basis for a successful training program on conflict prevention and management. Mike lives in the hills above Temecula, CA, with his beautiful wife, Eunice, where they enjoy hosting family and friends at their vineyard property.
