Thomas Walsh
Tom has spent his career focused on helping people to achieve their personal, professional, and financial goals, whether as a counselor in group home settings working with abused children, developing and delivering STEM education to children, financial and insurance planning for families or as an attorney for families and small businesses. Tom is a co-founder of Virtual Training Innovation and Plan for Health and has been intimately involved in the dental industry as the spouse of Yolanda Mangrum, D.D.S. He has supported Yolanda since the founding of her first practice in 1999, from assisting on weekend emergencies to providing legal advice and support on the purchase and merger of dental practices. He was first introduced to Fortune through Yolanda’s practice and he walks the talk having gone through Fortune’s programs starting in 2000.
Yolanda Mangrum
Yolanda Mangrum, DDS, MAGD has been a practicing dentist since 1997 and practice owner since 1999. She is the founder of Plan For Heath (PFH), co-founder of Virtual Training Innovation (VTI), and the owner/CEO Petaluma Dental Group (PDG). Plan For Health is a wellness membership plan for dental offices. It was created as a patient/ practice win-win to fill the gaps in dental insurance. The need to create Virtual Training Innovation came from her desire to stop repeating herself in training. She says, "Keeping my team on track with training, culture, goals, and protocols has seemed like a never-ending frustrating task. I needed to create a way to stop this cycle and win." Throughout her practicing years, she has strived to create protocols that would achieve repeatable results and lay the groundwork for inspiring individual growth. She has consistently shared her best practices with her dental colleagues, inspired new dentists, and participated in organized dentistry to improve the dental profession.
