Mike Winter
Mike has been married to his wife Kim for more than 30 years. They are the parents of ten children, ages 12 to 30, all of whom currently claim to be walking in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Mike and Kim also enjoy eight grandchildren but are certain their children can and will produce more!
Mike met his wife while attending Hope College where he received Jesus as his Savior then subsequently earned his BA in Religion. Using his degree, Mike served two years as an associate pastor before ‘retiring.’ Mike then worked ten years in the insurance industry beginning as a sales representative before transitioning to corporate, where he worked in marketing management.
After leaving the temporary insurance industry Mike joined CBMC in 1997 as the area director for Central Michigan. Mike has been on staff now with CBMC for more than twenty-five years.

Mike Smock
Mike is a volunteer Trusted Advisor Forum facilitator for the Central Michigan region. Married for 44 years to his high school sweetheart, he is the proud father of two and grandfather of three. Mike was born and raised in Ann Arbor, went to MSU, then moved across the country with stops in Chicago, Salt Lake, and San Francisco before recently resettling in DeWitt, Michigan. He is a "Michigander' at heart, passionate when it comes to UM/MSU football, and blessed to have all of his immediate family living within 20 minutes of each other.
Mike's career has been split between owning and operating enterprises and advising and consulting enterprise leaders. As an advisor working with start-ups and turnarounds, he has walked alongside CEOs on the best days of their lives and their worst days when they lost everything. And as an entrepreneurial CEO, he knows what it's like to "sign on the dotted line," raise millions, miss payrolls, be in the Wall Street Journal, and battle creditor committees, adverse boards, and union activists. For the past 14 years, he has been CEO of Distributed Security, Inc. and, most recently, founder of Kingdom Defense.
