This is a lesson from the comprehensive program, Navigating Generative AI for Leaders.
In this lesson, you’ll learn how Coursera CEO, Jeff Maggioncalda, leverages generative AI models to be a more effective CEO. Jeff will discuss how he uses AI covering everything from his set up and model choices, through hands-on prompting examples. He will introduce you to three prompting strategies: Basic Query mode, Context Enhanced mode and Thought Partner mode and provide examples of how he puts them to work in his day to day as Coursera’s CEO. Jeff will explain the methods and guide you through hands-on exercises leveraging Coursera’s Playground labs, a private sandbox where you can interact with a powerful large-language model (LLM), side-by-side with Jeff. Jeff will also walk you through an exercise that enables you to use AI to anticipate how your role may evolve in the future. This exercise will help you understand what you should do to prepare for the future of work, including what skills, knowledge, and abilities you may need to acquire, as well as how to mitigate potential risks.
This module explores the use of Generative AI (GenAI) as a strategic tool for employees. It guides users on setting up a GenAI playground, crafting effective prompts, and critically evaluating model responses. The course demonstrates GenAI's capabilities in handling queries and acting as a thought partner, with practical exercises and readings to enhance understanding. Learners who complete this module will be equipped to work alongside a large language model to enhance and sharpen their thinking.

Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
