    This module was my favorite as I learnt so much on how to be a better leader , how to adapt my leadership style and even to recognize if I am a bad leader by looking at psychopathic traits.

    It'll be nice if someone could uptade certain parts of the lectures like really old articles, dead links or links that lead to pages that require a paid subscription in order to see the content. Also in weeks one and two the tasks are related to Wework as a good example of a successful organization, however this company has been under fire for months because of a possible fraud to their investors.
