About the Course

Team leads, managers, and entrepreneurs must juggle team citizenship and leadership, ethics, strategy, and projects with their work in their area of expertise. While an individual contributor’s success may depend on their own direct input -- the sweat of their own brow – managers’ success depends on their ability to enlist the active involvement of others: direct reports, other managers, other team members, other department employees, and those above them on the organizational chart -- sometimes even their suppliers or customers! How do you form, launch, and manage a team such that it has the highest chance of success? How can you ensure your team’s work aligns with the organization’s strategy? What basic project management tools can you utilize right away, without purchasing special software, that will help your team meet its objectives on time, on budget, and to spec? Your success at work will depend on the level of trust your colleagues, those who report to you, and those to whom you report feel toward you – how can you build and maintain a high degree of trust? This course will help you succeed in your career....

The course gave good basics for management and materials were easy to follow. Got many useful thoughts and tips that are easily implemented to a daily management. With online courses there is no-one you could ask, so sometimes needed to ponder a bit how to continue. Worth of time spent!

I felt the ethical module was meant for a more advanced course and could have been covered less. Aside from that I enjoyed this course and felt that it have great insights that could actually be applied in my job immediately!

Excellent course! Would have loved a PDF textbook to accompany the course to refer back on a more regular basis, but overall, I highly recommend.

Coursework and topics covered are valuable and insightful, but the use of anonymous peer-reviewed final project leaves course success in the hands of arbitrary graders.

The narration in the videos seemed like it was set at 1.2X or 1.5X speed. The content seemed okay, but the structure was not captivating. It felt more academic than direct application from day-to-day.
