completed this course, spending 3 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be easy.
A very good course! I was looking for something that was not so much about management, but rather about leadership per se. And this is what this course is about - leadership. Its concepts can be applied anywhere - even in your own family. The ideas discussed in the course were novel and perhaps a little controvercial to me as a conservative. But they are presented so eloquently and persuasively that one cannot but embrace them. A wonderful course!
