    I've taken more than a dozen leadership/management specializations, and this is by far the most comprehensive and balances well between theory and reflection. Highly recommended!

    This course offers an impressive array of thought-provoking reflection questions that truly challenge and stimulate the mind. The questions require ample time for deep contemplation, encouraging participants to delve into the complexities of leadership. It would be beneficial to consider renaming the course to better reflect its advanced level, as it caters to current leaders seeking to enhance their skills. Additionally, in these turbulent times, it might be advisable to remove any references to the term "boss," as it may not resonate well with individuals who prefer more collaborative and inclusive leadership approaches.

    If only I had taken such a course years ago! The content is really useful for those in leadership roles. Through this course, it helped me understand myself better (through the psychometric test), the importance of delegation (thanks to the "Who's Got The Monkey" article), better communication interactions with my boss, and managing conflict.

    I found this course very interesting, but It would help me more if there were more practical examples on the topic discussed on week 2 and week 3 let's say someone from company had an conflict how did it resolve it, what can we learn from that, or to show us some fragments of a Youtube video or a film to analyze that, Great course i will recommend it.
