My name is Paul and I’m a writer and general business-ey guy living in Brisbane, Australia.
I spent close to 20 years in the IT industry as a consultant and project engineer. As a former Microsoft MVP I founded and ran Practical 365 (previously Exchange Server Pro), a leading community site for Office 365 and Exchange Server technical content (still going strong today!).
I’ve written many books over the years, including for Microsoft Press. I’ve also worked as a Pluralsight author, creating video training content for IT pros.
These days I focus on our family’s happiness, health, and business. My work is at the intersection of technology, business & people management.
Some other projects of mine:
- Surviving IT: Essential Advice for Building a Happy and Healthy Technology Career. I wrote Surviving IT as my farewell advice to traditional IT pros and tech workers. I kept the advice as timeless as I could, so it remains relevant for a long time. You can read it for free online, or order a copy here.
- Other books I’ve written are here. Technology being what it is, many of them are out of date now.
