A great experience of learning about business strategy..many concepts refreshed that I studied during my MBA. A great teaching approach by the faculty; a blend of readings, videos, and quizzes!!

Very interesting, varied lectures with relevant presentations of Danish companies in all sorts of situations. The assignment was fun to do, but the grading process could be a bit smoother.

The materials were interesting and relevant. The instructions for the final project were a bit cryptic - it was not completely clear what the instructor wanted. The submissions I reviewed were all over the board and none came close to the grading rubric

The course content itself was good, however the final assignment was vague and confusing. I think my coursemates had the same problem; all of the submissions I reviewed failed to discuss in any way at least one of the learning objectives.

Could be improved.. the ideas seem disconnected there is no clear flow of the ideas presented in different weeks and the specific actions to formulate a strategy. but overall good course with excellent frameworks. Thanks a lot Coursera

The material is good, but I feel there should be at least one example given of a executive summary, before asking students to write one. It would also be nice to be able to download some slides and / summaries of the lessons.

This course was more diverse than I thought it would be and I really enjoyed it, however I thought the end of year project could have provided more differentiated prep material as that confused me.

Not as good as the previous course in this specialisation, and actually, some of the frameworks promoted contradict that specialisation. Also loads of accounts with plagiarised/copied reports.

It would be interesting to dig deep into the formulation itself, besides the analytical frameworks. For example, How is the process of designing compelling strategies? what models?

Not a bad course but a lot of materials are outdated of paywalled by now. Also, review criteria and keystone project definition differ so that no perfect result can be achieved.

The course gave a nice overview on strategy formulation but was in my view a bit inconsistent. However I learned the main techniques used in formulation, so no regrets.

Its ok, perhaps too theoretical, most of the basic strategy consulting companies give a more enanaced and "buy in" approach on how to formulate a strategy and why

I think the level was a bit on the low side and the time i had to spend on each week was far less compared with the first module. Videos maintain high standard.

The course is good. Some materials are outdated.. thinking that this course was developed more than 10 years ago, I think it could use a refresh.

Not too much different information from what can be found in internet for free.
If it was cheaper the relationship cost-quality could improve.

Interesting but not really practical. This module could benefit of more examples when it comes to formulating strategies.

why is that the same final exam than for Strategy Management' course... It should have great assigning another task

I felt the course was ok, but wanted more. It seemed very general, even with the focus in the end on e-Types.

Good course, easy to listen, but not many real checks of the knowledge and some links are not accessible

The final project is fairly confusing in its ask. This should be outlined clearly which its not.

I wish teachers look at our work too rather than student though they do their jobs.

This is a very simple, brief and useful course.
The modules are short, concise but do not go into lot of details. Is a good course to audit/browse for free but may not be good enough against a verified option. Anyways, paying for verified course is subject to personal value derivation.
While I had rated earlier for the above reasons before the course finished. I am facing the exact same problem with this course as I faced with earlier course.
The grading process is badly constructed for final assignment. In fact, now I am learning from coursera staff that may be there are not enough students to grade my peer review assignment.
So please do audit this course but do not be trapped in specialization.
Cheers..

In contrast to the first course in this specialization this one is rather boring. It repeats quite a lot of stuff from the first course, actually the capstone project briefing is identical. Most of the content is straight forward internet stuff. Not really what I would expect. It seems to me, the teacher had to do this course. I was really bored listening. In fact I skipped some of the videos, and still scored high in the tests. The tests are pretty lull - and you can't look up what was correct and wrong. So you have no choice to learn and improve.
