SOUTHFIELD, Mich.—Great Expressions Dental Centers (GEDC), a dental support organization, has been recognized along with its executives for award-winning leadership and as a best place to work.

Richard Beckman, GEDC CEO, was named a bronze winner for Executive of the Year by Best in Biz, while Kristy Loomis, vice president of human resources, and Wendy Flanagan, vice president of operations Georgia North, were honored with the bronze award for Female Executives of the Year by the Stevie Awards for Women in Business. GEDC as a company was recognized as an award winner for The Stevie Awards for Great Employers.

Beckman was among the first to create a network of dental providers with a common brand and unified mission. He also recognized a need to provide cost-effective solutions for the uninsured, creating the Smile Protection Plan, an all-in-one dental discount plan that offers savings on dental care for those who can’t afford traditional dental insurance.

“Our mission as a company is to provide the highest quality care possible at an affordable cost to our patients,” said Beckman. “In order to achieve that quality, it is important to hire and train not only the best doctors, but the best professionals throughout the company. I’m honored to be recognized as Executive of the Year, but I’m even more proud of Kristy and Wendy for earning their recognition.”

Loomis’ leadership style focuses on setting a plan for her team. In her role, she has helped streamline the company’s internal processes to improve efficiency and the overall experience in onboarding doctors and other professional staff members.

Flanagan prides herself on her ability to lead a team of more than 200 people to drive, solve, build and develop processes to improve the company’s overall business and operations strategies.
