He helps leaders prepare for the future challenges that the world of tomorrow will demand of them. Atkins believes that in today\u2019s VUCA (Volatile, Unpredictable, Complex, and Ambiguous) world, the speed an organization learns must be faster than the speed of change.<\/p>\n<p>Mike brings forward 20 years of experience as a military leader, where he gained an applied understanding of what is required to develop high-performance teams capable of thriving in VUCA environments. As a Consultant, he has led many successful engagements to enable higher performance levels and meaningful change. As a coach, he works with senior leaders and leadership teams. His clients range from c-suite executives of multi-million-dollar companies to senior military officers.<\/p>\n<p>Mike\u2019s Doctoral research interest aims to investigate how coaching might develop trustworthiness in leadership to improve organizational performance.\u00a0Research has consistently shown that higher trust levels lead to greater performance, followership and profitability.\u00a0With that said, much work has been placed into measuring trust; however, currently, there is not much data to support practices associated with the development of trust. Mike believes that this research would provide a unique opportunity to study the evolution of trust and its effect on organizational performance.<\/p>\n<p>Atkins is a Certified Executive Coach who holds a Professional Certified Coach designation through the International Coaching Federation. In addition, Mike has completed Graduate Certificates in Executive Coaching (2016) and Change Management (2018), and a Master of Arts in Leadership from Royal Roads University (2015). He enjoys martial arts, reading, and spending time outdoors with his family in his free time.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Video&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px|40px|20px|40px|false|false&#8221; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]\n\n<!-- iframe plugin v.6.0 wordpress.org\/plugins\/iframe\/ -->\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/admin.video.ubc.ca\/p\/154\/sp\/15400\/embedIframeJs\/uiconf_id\/23448716\/partner_id\/154?iframeembed=true&#038;playerId=kaltura_player&#038;entry_id=0_4peubsgf\" width=\"456\" height=\"317\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_social_media_follow follow_button=&#8221;on&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||0px|40px|false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_social_media_follow_network social_network=&#8221;linkedin&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/michael-atkins-cd-ma-acc-630a8376&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#007bb6&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; follow_button=&#8221;on&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221;]linkedin[\/et_pb_social_media_follow_network][et_pb_social_media_follow_network social_network=&#8221;dbdb-internet&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.breakpoint.solutions\/aboutbps&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; follow_button=&#8221;on&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221;]dbdb-internet[\/et_pb_social_media_follow_network][\/et_pb_social_media_follow][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/commons.royalroads.ca\/dbaprogrampage\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/76\/2022\/04\/mike.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Mike&#8217;s photo&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Mike Atkins&#8221; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Picture&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.0&#8243; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||||false|false&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;top&#8221; animation_intensity_slide=&#8221;5%&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; animation=&#8221;top&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;35px||35px|40px|false|false&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;1px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;#f5f5f5&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Tags&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]\n<p>(Edit) Tags: trust, coaching, organizational development, leadership\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;40px||||false|false&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Previous Link&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]\u00ab <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.royalroads.ca\/dbaprogrampage\/2021-cohort\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2021 Cohort<\/a>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Next Link&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]\n<p style=\"text-align: right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.royalroads.ca\/dbaprogrampage\/arianna-bhagwansingh\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Arianna Bhagwansingh<\/a> \u00bb<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mike Atkins is an Executive Coach and Organizational Development Consultant whose work interests currently serve the Canadian Department of Defence.
