On a personal note, Paul grew up on a hill country farm in New Zealand and, like many Kiwis, went on to travel the world. He climbed Mount Kilimanjaro twice, crossed the Sahara three times and the Himalayas eight times. Following his travels, he got a ‘real job’ culminating in a global C-suite role in a multinational IT company. In 1999 he left the corporate world to found People Alchemy which specialises in niche learning software.
