Lessons on Wisdom: Personal Leadership for Your Life is the culmination of four decades of studying and sharing about leaders and life for Professor Sydney Finkelstein. This course will teach you how to be a wise leader both personally and professionally. It is a personal, meaningful course that encourages all participants to change and grow. In it, you will be asked to think differently about who you are and what you do, so that you can take charge of your own life. By understanding nuance and paradox, by learning who you are as an individual, you will find yourself a wiser—and perhaps even happier—person.
Excellent the assignment makes us to think a lot of past present and future.
lloving this Specialization of this ivy league university Dartmouth
This lesson was amazing and it thought me so much.
I think this course is subtle yet powerful and will create a significant impact to the learner to review, evaluate personal leadership style at work, and in personal life.
Excellent course! Professor is easy to follow and uses great stories and examples.
about 80% was relevant for me , some which was specific to shows or other country cultures are not known for me , so less effect of understanding the goal of the course
The course provides practical lessons and room to reflect on my character, personality, and assumptions in order to become the best possible leader I could become.
If you take the time to really do the exercises, this will likely be the best course of this amazing specialization.
The best specialization course on Coursera. High-quality educational materials, thanks a lot Prof. Sydney.

This course and the other courses within the Strategic Leadership certificate were excellent! So much of the content will help me now and later. Really insightful habits to build. Appreciated Professor Finkelstein's engaging delivery and the deep experience that he spoke from. An expert who was willing to share his missteps and learning to help students learn and thrive! Recommend!!
These days I am obsessed with both education but also, critical reasoning skills. This specialization was well crafted from beginning to end. I loved Sydney and truly felt like we were in this journey together. I loved the insightful prompts and creative thinking exercises. Learning about all those companies and about their CEO's was fascinating. Entertaining and thought provoking.
This entire specialization was incredibly valuable for evaluating myself. Finklestein is a fantastic lecturer. I also purchased books written by podcast guests - "Uncolonized Latinas" written by Valeria Aloe and "Slow Productivity" by Cal Newport. Life Changing!
This is the best personal leadership course I've ever taken as mid career female professional who's climbing the UN leadership ladder and aspiring to be the best version of myself at work but also at home. THANK YOU teacher.
I really enjoy the course content about the leadership. The creative way we can solve different problems. How to set goals and processes to achieve that goal. Highly recommended for anyone interested to leadership role.
