A personal thinking on the topics covered by this course: it opened my mind. I thought my reduced professional enthusiasm depended on my long professional experience. I realized that this is not the case, due to the evolution of the economic world and the organization of work. Work is changing nature not only because of technology but also because of the different life aspirations of workers, not just the Y generations. And I learned that the organizations must take this into account.

Overall, The course proves to be a Great Learning Experience.

I suggest the learners who want to Manage Any Company of the Future to enroll and complete this course as it will provide practical insights to Manage a Company. Thank You.

Great course. I am from technical background and I always thought of myself as having poor managerial skills. This course helped me understand that in many ways I'm already on the right path. In a way this course helped me gain some self-confidence. In addition it showed me some new ways to tackle day to day challenges, not only at work but also in personal life. The same principles that can be applied to managing companies and organizations could also work in private life.

The course work is really educational and helped me a lot to understand how companies are changing, the different styles of management and the variety of business models that are out there. No matter where you are in organisations, this course will help you be a good manager and a positive visionary for any company.

Excellent Course!!!

Professor Julian Birkinshaw did a fantastic job of laying out the principles of 'Managing the Company of the Future' in a way that was easy to consume.

I particularly liked the balanced perspective provided between "Traditional and Alternative" Management Models. I enjoyed reading the case studies/ examples that helped bring the principles to life, since I've always been interested in the 'underlying principles' that make things work in the world.

Pleasant exploration of business models and management platforms in transition. Some charming quotidiens on incidences from circumstantial experimentation. Hard to know how to complete course and final may expect a bit too much "by the book" regurgitation for my experienced creative nature. Fun and interesting; nice civilized break from the hell of our world right now with the covid thing. Overall ...a kind of tour de force for management education, in my opinion.

This is a wonderful, thought provoking course with an excellent instructor. Julian Berkinshaw is intelligent, his videos are concise and the overall lesson he provides offers incredible insight into the evolution of the corporate world and useful information for, literally, managing the company of the future. I would recommend this class to anyone in the working world, whether they're interested in business or not. The knowledge it provides is useful for everyone!

I loved this course from the very first lessons and, even if dated, served as a mirroring as a senior manager, I was able to rehabilitate old and new strategies to improve my personal relationship with modern challenges.

I was also able to reformulate the merit criterion for the people who are part of my team.

in short, a trip that by no means failed to thrill me so much that in 6-8 days I completed the entire program, studying even 6 hours consecutively per day

Professor Julian certainly knows his stuff and goes through the material in a logical structured way, pulling the lessons and themes together effortlessly. There are also some great contributions from both other professors and good case studies from those in organisations who have effected great changes. You have to mark other peer assignments and good way of learning to give constructive feedback and to gauge your perspectives and performance, against others.

The course was excellent and very comprehensive, yet thorough and clear. I would very much like to listen to the continuation of this course as well and get into the subject a little deeper. Julian is a great lecturer who understands perfectly and respects what he teaches. The course consists of well-balanced units and is easy to follow. If possible, it would be good to have a little more independent creative work that would be evaluated and mentored.

Many thanks to Prof. Julian for formulating this course. The course videos are well-spaced, giving flexibility to the students. Special mention to the simple and straightforward lectures from the professor, making it easy to absorb his viewpoints without much strain. Would be keen to know if Prof. Julian would be offering dedicated courses on specific contents of this course, such as Motivation, Collective Wisdom, and Intrinsic Rewards.

Very well structured, the information is clear and relevant. Julian is very articulate and has wide up-o-date knowledge on the ways companies are/ need to evolve. The course has helped me understand that I need to change with the changing management forms. I wish organisations would share their structures in a simple adaptable manner to employees, when they join. I would like to do that when I get the opportunity.

Interesting course that helps me understand more about the management models of organizations and its transitions in light of technology and social changes. This awareness is important to help me consciously seek to understand what organization management needs and how we as managers should react and make decisions in a more appropriate way to satisfy the needs of the people, and the future.

Nice course. Clear and well explained. It shows how many manager out there know very little what they are doing. It is an eye opener and validates what you as an employee might be feeling when you work in a dysfunctional organization like I did quite a bit. I also think that it is the type of course every manager or anybody with a leadership position within the a organization should take.

This course is of critical importance to anybody that hopes to have better handling of the emerging organizations of the future. It can be applied across the board for multi-vocational individuals. The facilitation was top-notch. There should be an update to current realities, especially with the present global challenges. What was looked at as the future is not with us in the present.

Avalio o curso como excelente por seu nível de detalhe nas abordagens tradicionais e alternativas para a gestão de uma empresa hoje com uma visão realista de busca de equilíbrio e sem radicalismos.

O curso traz exemplos reais mostrando a teoria sendo aplicada na prática que permite que você possa se identificar e ter insights de como usar no seu dia dia os conceitos ensinados.

Recomendo!
