Patterson Consulting is an executive advisory and contract leadership platform led by Wayne Patterson, a former $100M+ enterprise CEO and senior growth executive with more than 25 years of experience scaling consumer brands and guiding complex organizations through transformation.

Originally founded in 1997, Patterson Consulting now operates as a strategic hub for executive-level engagements, including fractional leadership, growth strategy, restructuring, product portfolio expansion, and distribution scale initiatives across both private and mission-driven organizations.

The firm supports:

• Growth-stage and mid-market consumer brands
• Organizations navigating restructuring or strategic repositioning
