Family Business Consulting with Bob Pattillo and Molly Olson

Experience. Empathy. A roadmap for generations.

Business is complex. Family is complex. Combine the two, and the result can be extraordinary—or incredibly challenging. A family business has the power to strengthen both the company and the relationships at its core… or bring both to their knees. The difference lies in how you navigate it. 

Bob Pattillo and his daughter, Molly Olson, have spent more than a decade walking this landscape together. Molly grew up working in the family’s companies, and in 2017, the Pattillo family took a major leap: Bob and his wife, MeLynn, invited their two adult children, Baxter and Molly, to formally join the family business. It wasn’t always easy—but it was worth it. Today, their family is stronger, more aligned, and deeply committed to helping other families avoid unnecessary heartache, conflict, and expense. 

Bob and Molly bring a rare combination of lived experience, practical tools, and heartfelt understanding. They’ve been through the highs and lows of family business life—succession planning, communication breakdowns, strategic alignment, role clarity, and all the messy human parts that never show up on a balance sheet. While they don’t claim perfection, they do offer something invaluable: a proven, compassionate approach to helping families build businesses that last for generations.
