About this Episode:
In this episode of Knowledge Fika, I sit down with the legendary (and proudly self‑proclaimed) curmudgeon Marc D Anderson. With decades of experience in the Microsoft world, Marc has watched SharePoint grow from its awkward adolescence into today’s collaboration powerhouse.
We talk about the evolution of Microsoft 365, why Marc stays cautiously optimistic about Copilot, and how hype often gets in the way of solving real business problems. He shares honest, practical perspectives on what AI gets right—and where it still goes delightfully wrong.
And yes, we end with a Fika moment featuring cardamom buns and some thoughtful reflections on slowing down in the age of AI.

About Marc:
Marc D Anderson (Sympraxis Consulting) is what you get when deep technical expertise meets decades of real‑world consulting wisdom—served with a generous side of dry humour. A long‑time Microsoft MVP, author of the beloved SPServices library, and a go‑to voice in the SharePoint community, Marc has shaped the Microsoft ecosystem since the early TPU/Tahoe days.
He’s hands‑on, allergic to tech hype, and famously committed to “just wanting the truth.” Whether he’s designing solutions, blogging, or speaking at conferences, Marc brings clarity, candour, and a bit of that classic Anderson curmudgeon charm.
