The subjects selected are relevant, the professors are very knowledgable, engaging and inspiring and they answer all the questions promptly.
I enjoyed this course tremendously, highly recommended!

it is very impactful course that I can apply for real world evidence and develop leadership communication skills and mindset. I strongly recommend for colleagues and friends who want to be success

The course itself was fairly interesting however there was a lot of redundancy in the material presented. I especially disliked the peer review for a final grade. There were many skill sets involved with the folks that took this course and not all of the folks have equal skills in terms of analysis of material they were reviewing. By this I mean if your final submission was reviewed by someone with lesser skills and or understanding of material in general you end up with a lower grade.

I'd probably actually give this 3.5/5 stars. It was a good course, but I was hoping for a little more advanced storytelling/experiential learning. I think this course is perfect for people who don't have a graduate degree but if you have a graduate degree in a business related field it's likely you've covered most of this. I did appreciate the framework for storytelling though and thought it was helpful.

The course is easy to follow and well-taught. The prospective student should be aware that the course is an overview of each of the topics (mainly personal brand, segmenting audience, communicating innovation, crisis response), rather than covering the topics in-depth. Personally, I found interesting the concepts of personal brand, and the crisis response.

There are a large number o peer-review submissions that are simply cut and pasted from either the class or unrelated articles. Also, many assignments I reviewed are from the years 2020 and 2021. Are these students even active? It makes me wonder if my submission will get a timely review so that I may receive credit for having completed this course.

Thank you for providing practical methodologies for building the stories. The Crisis Response approach was very useful.
I would prefer to have assignments each week than to combine them all into the the final week. This allows to integrate the learnings and also preparing and marking the assignments doesn't take as long.

Inspiring course with a lot of reasons about why storystelling is so important. But I feel I haven't learned enough about the techniques and tools of storytelling, also more examples or best cases would have been beneficial to get a better understanding about how one could apply storytelling.

The teachings could have been better cemented through more frequent knowledge checks and activities - the theory all blended into one, and I found it more focused on "pitching the benefit of storytelling" than "teaching us how to craft and deliver better stories".

The final assignment could use a little bit of work, from a clarity standpoint. I actually think that the exercise is quite rewarding, but the expectations of, and directions for participants aren't entirely clear (and that's coming from a native English speaker).

I was looking forward to this course as I thought it would be extremely relevant. It would benefit of little quizzes after each module and more focus on the actual storytelling in presentations, not necessarily linked to leadership.

Content is good, but exercises could be improved, should also add a few interactive quizzes (e.g. a quiz before the segment to ask what they think are the 3 - 4 factors of X,Y,Z; then a quiz at end to summarize). Also add sources.

The high-level introduction to storytelling and what it encompass is really good. No weekly quiz or assignment, was a big minus. Also of the three reviews, at-least one from teaching group would be valuable.

This was a good course although the assignment at the end left a lot of room for improvement. Instructions were not clear and as a result, most of the assignments I graded didn't meet the scoring matrix...

I like the course and the material; I would suggest to include quiz, to the end of each section.
As well, it will be easier to write a story from final task after each section, not at the very end

Needs to cover more material in a more engaging way. Felt too lecture-based and observational. Possibly story-telling itself needs to be anchored more to specific usage occasions.

The course and the syllabus is good but the way of teaching can be way more innovative and engaging like storytelling itself ! its more of ' one person giving lecture' format.

Great material to think about. It could get better with clearer presentations, avoiding repetition of concepts and focusing more in practicing and generating the stories.

The first two weeks are focused on self growth, while the third is too focused on the company... I think it is a little bit incoherent. Anyway, it is a good course!

It's a good course, with valuable information about Storytelling applied for Leadership in organizations. However, don't expect much depth in the classes.

This was a good course, but I think that quizzes or assignments with each module would have helped the information to sink in more fully.

Course is OK. Not too informative or too poor. However, it is in the same context with its specialization series.

Very interesting and insightful. It would have benefitted though through more written assignments and exercises.

The information was interesting but not even close to the practical depth of the first class in this sequence.

good, but a bit high level. Doesn't go enough in details or give you specific tools or examples / case studies
