Rick Vandermyden

Geographies Covered: Utah, NorCal and Colorado

Meet Rick Vandermyden – a seasoned entrepreneur with deep-rooted experience in business leadership and resilience. Growing up in an entrepreneurial household, Rick quickly became familiar with every facet of running a business—often serving as the cheapest labor available. From spending school breaks on a tractor seat to spearheading sales and marketing for his father’s development company, he gained firsthand insight into both the triumphs and struggles of entrepreneurship.

After a period in corporate America, Rick’s passion for carving his own path led him back to his entrepreneurial roots. Navigating five companies through the 2006-2009 real estate crash, he faced one spectacular failure, rescued two from the brink, and successfully steered two others through turbulent times. The lessons learned during that period were both invaluable and costly.

Transitioning into an ownership role allowed Rick to pursue his passion for leadership development. Through leadership consulting, he was introduced to the book Traction by a client, a discovery that proved transformative. The book provided an operating system that enabled entrepreneurs to not only implement business strategies effectively but also bring long-held ideas to life.

What Orthodontists & Dentists Are Saying

Gibb Snow

From Chaos to Clarity: “We were floundering and our meetings weren’t effective...”

Max Kerr

From Burnout to Breakthrough: “I was overwhelmed and every decision started and stopped with me…”

Michelle Shimmin

As an orthodontic consultant and the owner of Shimmin Consulting, I’ve had the privilege of working with orthodontic practices across the globe. Through my extensive experience, I've witnessed how the EOS has the power to completely transform a business. When orthodontic practices implement EOS, it’s like flipping a switch—everything becomes clearer: priorities are aligned, accountability is stronger, and execution is on point. This clarity makes my work as an advisor even more impactful and rewarding, as I can guide my clients toward measurable growth and success with greater ease. For anyone serious about taking their practice to the next level with laser-sharp focus and alignment, I highly recommend diving into the 21-Day EOS Challenge. It’s a game-changer!

Lorraine Porto

Reading Fraction was a game-changer for me and my company. What I loved most was that I didn’t feel stuck in a cycle of trial and error, wondering if something might work. Instead, I had the confidence to fully commit to the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), knowing I was on the right track from day one. The book didn’t just introduce ideas—it provided a clear, proven framework that I could implement immediately. Not only do I recommend Fraction, but I can personally report success from applying the EOS strategies within my company. The results speak for themselves, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the clarity and direction this system provided.

Dr. Sarah Davidson

Before implementing EOS, managing a growing multi-location orthodontic practice felt overwhelming. With 40 employees (and more on the way), it was challenging to keep everyone aligned and ensure the doctors weren’t buried in day-to-day operations. Since adopting EOS, we’ve gained clarity on our structure, strengthened leadership across all locations, and created accountability that allows the doctors to truly focus on their unique abilities. It’s been a game-changer for our growth and efficiency!
