Christopher Duncan makes a living writing books and providing commercial copywriting services through his company, Practical Strategy Consulting.

He's also the author of The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World and Unite the Tribes: Ending Turf Wars for Career and Business Success.

Having spent various lifetimes as a working class stiff, professional musician, marketing guru, entrepreneur, cubicle dwelling C++ programmer and now author & speaker, he is decidedly irreverent and unconventional.

Any resemblance between his personal appearance and that of certain small, hairless canines is purely coincidental.
