What people are saying

strategy formulation

After having completed the Business Strategy course, I feel disappointed about Strategy Formulation.

I quit Thank you This course is excellent for students, professionals and managers who wish to get a much deeper understanding of initiating a strategy formulation.

Mind blowing conceptual approach was adopted especially in the areas of basic conceptual knowledge of Strategy Formulation in depth.

Covers all the aspects that should be taught to make someone learn strategy formulation It was really a pleasure, with focused theoretical explanations and useful readings.

Second part of the specialization, this course will talk about Strategy Formulation.

The Course is a great imprimer for Strategy Formulation.

The course gave a nice overview on strategy formulation but was in my view a bit inconsistent.

Very insightful course, broaden my horizon over the new age of strategy formulation.

In-depth framework on how to formulate the theories of strat strategy formulation is an excellent course The speaking style and body language of the instructor was quite monotonous when teaching the content.

Definitely recommended for somebody who want to learn Strategy Formulation in detail.

Excellent insight into the language and dynamics of strategy formulation.

The real-world cases also were very good examples and helped me understand more about the effects of strategy formulation in a business.

The title 'Strategy Formulation' creates expectations I have not fully found satisfied.

peer review

To then be asked to peer review others based on this is particularly disengaging.

In fact, now I am learning from coursera staff that may be there are not enough students to grade my peer review assignment.So please do audit this course but do not be trapped in specialization.Cheers.. AMAZING!

I didn't like both scoring methodology (1-3 only) in the peer review assignment and the assignment itself.

This caught a lot of the learns off guard, it seemed, in the capstone peer review.

final assignment

The final assignment is ambiguously described.

The course content itself was good, however the final assignment was vague and confusing.

Great education and a very good setup, but the final assignment is very vague, so it's challenging.

A Nice Really practical and loved that we had to use much of the work material for the final assignment.

final project

The instructions for the final project were a bit cryptic - it was not completely clear what the instructor wanted.

I only dislike the fact that wasn't very clear the instructions for the final project, every work I reviewed and also mine, were very different, I think that everybody understand a different thing, and that wouldn't happen if the instructions were clear.

too much

Not too much different information from what can be found in internet for free.If it was cheaper the relationship cost-quality could improve.

It stretches my own limitations and encourages me to excel, without being too much to handle.

recommend it

I'll recommend it for a better start for those interested in pursuing courses in planning and management.

Wonderful course and I strongly recommend it for management.
