He’s also worked for and written for other publications ranging from The Washington Post, USA Today, The Indianapolis Star, The Christian Science Monitor, Spiegel Online, The Prague Tribune and FastCompany.com. He received an Overseas Press Club award for best business stories in 2011 with WSJ colleagues for reporting on China.

Having written about business for years, Paul decided to come to the Berlin School of Creative Leadership to expand his own entrepreneurial skills. “Our group blog took off more than we expected so we were figuring how to add products, sustain it and monetize it.”, Paul said. “The Berlin School was an stimulating environment that helped me to come up with the right ideas and methods to do so.”
