During this section (part 4), I did work slowly in the first two weeks of outlined work with tools I was very unfamiliar with. I believe this is only a result of me being a "green cap" and even more so, coming with a background in pharmacy and data science rather than business. I really found weeks 3-5 to relate to my workplace and project-based work in an office with a team. I firmly believe that Coursera provides as much benefit to me as I make of it, and none of my interviews have ever inquired about how many certificates I have done. That being said, I really have found several things from John Kim in these courses that have shaped the way I tackle a problem, speak about projects to my managers, and even how I talk in interviews. I appreciate that this course has the same instructor, because 1.) He is excellent at explaining things and 2.) Consistency is good compared to a google certificate that had a new speaker every module, like a YouTube ad instead of focusing on the material being taught. I felt like I got a lot of benefit from this section and am excited to finish the specialization.

This was a very enlightening course and everything was very well structured and clearly explained. I particularly liked the key messages at the end of every video that gave specific tips for different levels of experiences, as well as the outline of the course contents and key takeaways at the beginning of the course, which really helped me better understand the overall outcome and take notes throughout the course.

This was by far the most enjoyable course within this specialisation. The tips were extremely useful, the learning was very practical and I feel as though I gained some fantastic insight into management consulting. John is a remarkable teacher, he can really break down big problems into "buckets" and help you find solutions :) Thoroughly enjoyed this, and look forward to the next.

Excellent course , very informative and smartly structured to provide great learning on selection and application of consulting tools. Very useful tips in data collection (interviews, surveys, observations etc) and analysis , benchmarking. The key consideration to focus on Client's expectations and behaviors. Thanks John , great course.

3 things I thought made this great

1) The depth of the course and application to consulting. This was spot on.

2) How tactical the advice was. There were concepts and mindsets and many tips to apply right now.

3) How simple and organized it felt. It was so easy to follow along (note outline given, structure, PPT, discussion).

This course is really well explained and a lot of the concepts are repeatedly reaffirmed which makes the concepts easy to recall. There are questions within some presentation videos and the quizzes are sometimes segmented throughout a module but with more frequency. Overall it is exceedingly informative and useful.

I am taking the Management Consulting Specialization, and this course about consulting "Tips and Tricks," was hugely beneficial. I learned much about getting smart about a particular client/industry quickly. Thank you, Professor John Kim, for sharing all these valuable tools.

This course, like the other courses in the specialization series, is amazing. A lot instruction, information, helpful suggestion, learning material, websites, ... very useful for someone want to join consulting like me. Can't wait to find out what's more on course 5

This is a great course that covers frameworks, the application of frameworks, and tools to analyze and research companies. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn more about what consultants do and as a refresher for experienced consultants.

This module was full of actual treasure and jackpot on consulting tools and tips, the content was very informative, practical and super useful. sincere thanks to instructor Sir John Kim.

Hi all!

Finally, I learned about consulting from the inside and what it is.

John, you spent 8 months creating these courses and I think you did a good job. I thank you for your work

Expertly put together, articulately delivered and with the UI systems! Thank you Coursera. Thank you Emory University. Thank my able lecturer, John Great job you all.

I truly enjoyed the course. Mr Kim is simply the best instructor I have met. His method of teaching leaves one with imprint memory never to forget.Thanks so much

This was an excellent course on how to quickly prepare for any project and how to get smart quick. I really appreciated how easy to follow this course was.

The instructor explains things very clearly. And the way he teaches is like teaching offline, so lessons are more engaging than usual online courses.

I like the structure of the courses and Dr. Kim just makes it enjoyable to attend! keep up the good work hoping to see other new courses :)

Congrats to Professor John Kim, his metology and dynamics were fantastic. I learned a lot. I'm sure other consultants will like it!

Very useful insights and tool tipps for all situations in business life! I am excited to put everything in use. Thanks!

Course 4 of the 5 has been the most valuable to me. I am completing the whole Specialization.

As a former PwC consultant, this program clarified a number of how-to and why questions.
