Paul Gibbons

Paul Gibbons is a former equity-derivatives trader and Wall Street risk specialist turned organizational psychologist, ex-CEO, and one of the leading voices on AI adoption in business. He is the author of nine books on leadership, change, and the human side of technology, and advises executives on how people and organizations adapt under pressure — themes that translate directly to the felt.

A summer-only player, Paul treats the World Series of Poker as his annual proving ground. This marks his 17th WSOP, with career tournament cashes approaching $1 million. In his series of articles for PokerOrg, The Modern Psychology of Poker, he brings a trader's grasp of risk, a psychologist's read of human behavior, and decades of studying decision-making under uncertainty to the questions every serious player wrestles with.
