Highly recommend the course. From a business studies perspective, it covers all the material in great detail and yet not overwhelming you. The course is set up in bite size chunks that you can swallow easily. The mode of learning is both visual through videos, simple notes and also exercises and tasks with checklists and questionnaires.
The fact that this course is free is astonishing. The value is unmatched. Go for it.

Amazing module! Deep thinking and articulation of my thoughts making me rethink my business strategy, processes and funds. There'll be a potential restructuring, hiring and operational process to implement. I'm looking forward to collaborating with female focused groups, associations and institutions to work with. This will also help me with expansion and taking on new climes!

Thank you so much Goldman Sachs!

This module introduced me to the business growth plan and it was an eye opener for me because I had always assumed that only potential investors should require this from my business.

However, at the end of this module, I realized I need the "BGP" as well so I can plan effectively, measure our targets and communicate our strategic vision to our team.
