In this episode, Jaap tells us how he got into speaking at conferences. We talk about examples of how his support has helped people on their own speaking journey. We discuss a few of the recent talks he has given, from abstracting code to bettering your home automation. We get to discuss his Microsoft MVP being renewed a few hours before we recorded. Last, and probably most important, we learned that he submitted the slap with a fish function into Poshbot. A function that gets extensive use in our office.

Andrew Pla
PowerShell MVP, podcast host, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit
I’m a technical educator and community builder. I’m a Microsoft PowerShell MVP, podcast host, speaker, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit. I also work at PDQ alongside sysadmins and IT pros every day.
Community isn’t just what I do. It’s where I get my energy. I genuinely light up when I see someone land a new job, level up a skill, or show up to their first conference. I love sharing that passion with others.
Every week I host a live podcast and stream on YouTube covering PowerShell, automation, and the humans behind the keyboards.
If you’re on your IT journey and need someone in your corner, you’re in the right place. Find more at andrewpla.tech/links.
