William Vanderbloemen Featured on Growing with Purpose Podcast

Our CEO and founder of Vanderbloemen, William Vanderbloemen, was featured in a podcast “Growing with Purpose” with Paul Spiegelman, where William talked about how he created buy-in to his company and built what would become a 2018 Forbes Small Giant: Best Small Companies in America. Paul Spiegelman is the co-founder of the Small Giants Community, a peer-group of purpose-driven business leaders. He is the former chief culture officer of Stericycle, the co-founder and former CEO of BerylHealth, and the founder and chairman of The Beryl Institute.

“The real calling I felt was looking at how uncoordinated the search process was in churches, and how elegant it could be in the business world,” William said. 

On the podcast, Paul interviewed William, who talked about how he came up with the idea to bring the best practices of executive search to faith-based organizations. Vanderbloemen provides faith-based organizations with a deep understanding of the local church and their theology, combined with the very best knowledge and practices of professional executive search.

In this episode, you'll hear about William's early lessons learned from an arch nemesis on his paper route, the nine cultural values that define his company, and his lifelong habit of blowing stuff up. Listen to the entire podcast here.
