Ryan Vet, MBA, CVP

USA TODAY Bestselling Author and International Speaker
Ryan Vet
Durham, North Carolina, United States

Ryan Vet understands the tension you feel in your practice—between generations, between expectations, between what your patients want and what your team delivers. And he knows how to fix it. A USA TODAY bestselling author and international keynote speaker, Ryan has delivered nearly 1,000 presentations on four continents, equipping leaders to communicate with clarity, elevate the customer experience, and bridge generational divides. He has built multiple successful businesses, led teams through hyper growth, and advised entrepreneurs and small business owners who, like many dentists, wear every hat—CEO, therapist, marketer, and motivator. Ryan’s insights have been featured in Forbes, Financial Times, ABC, and NBC, not because he talks about theory but because he delivers real-world results. His best-known book, "Speak Goodr," helps professionals master the art of communication—and it has been adopted by leaders in healthcare, hospitality, education, and beyond. What makes Ryan so effective with dental audiences isn’t just his stage presence or business experience—it’s his understanding of what makes practices thrive. Married to a practicing dentist, he has a front-row seat to the realities dental teams face every day. His passion for dentistry is personal, and his sessions are anything but generic. Whether your biggest challenge is retaining your team, connecting across generations, improving patient loyalty, or creating a culture worth staying for, Ryan brings fresh perspective and practical tools you can implement immediately.
