MHT - there are good reference works that provide everything you need,
such as:

 

*         the Australian Government Style Manual for Authors, Editors
and Printers; 

*         the Cambridge Australian English Style Guide; and

 

Technical (eg web development) info online may be reliable. But an
individual can rise even to senior management without the requisite
grammatical skills for tech writing.
