The seven weeks of this learning journey were filled with new perspectives and practical skills. The course aims to provide learners with an understanding of themselves and to build their inner stability. Prof. Gupta explained various leadership styles and frameworks with a great set of examples and case studies, and he made the entire course with so much thoughtfulness that anyone who undertakes the course will take the lessons as short stories. For me, the highlight of this course was his description of Mahabharata and how he so beautifully linked it with leadership lessons from each of the characters. Honestly, my knowledge of Indian scriptures has never been very good. With this course, I think I gained many new skills and knowledge. Not only that, this course allowed me to introspect and nudge me to be a good human being first, and taught me the importance of leading with empathy. Being a leader is not a one-time thing. It is about constant learning and striving to be better than yesterday. A big thank you to Prof Gupta, IIM-A and Coursera for this wonderful experience.

Embarking on a course in leadership skills with Professor Vishal Gupta has been an enlightening and empowering experience. Throughout the entire process, from start to finish, I found myself fully engaged and captivated by the depth of knowledge and expertise that Professor Gupta brings to the table.
Professor Gupta's course on leadership skills goes beyond the conventional teachings one might expect. He delves into the essence of leadership, dissecting its core principles and shedding light on the intricacies of effective leadership in today's complex world. The TREAT framework & LEAP concepts are the essences of the leadership module. Leadership teachings based on the main heroes of Mahabharata make you revisit the great Itihasa with a learning mind. Appreciate him picking up the EPIC as a case study. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone seeking to enhance their leadership skills and unlock their full potential.

Many of us might think that discussing politics in the workplace is taboo (and no, we're not talking about government politics! 😄). However, 𝐈𝐈𝐌𝐀 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟. 𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐚 (Vishal Gupta) sheds light on this topic in his course on Leadership Skills by Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad/Coursera, emphasizing that power and politics are integral to organizational dynamics. This course, along with its insightful case studies, helps us apply our thoughts, identify problems, and explore alternative solutions. While our corporate experience equips us to tackle issues, this training boosts our confidence in our thought processes. Prof also covered Embracing Our Dual Nature: The Natural Self vs. The Ego Self among many other leadership skills covered. This is an Indianized version of Leadership Course along with Mahabharatha and I would recommend this course.

Awesome and completely thoughtful inherited course, which will pave your pathway in journey in imbibing leadership skills in yourself. Amazed to see the content, explanation and roadmap of each skills and their application in daily routine. Without these skills it is pertinent that we will not only restrict our self progress rather we will keep on procrastinating the same. If we need to really give meaningful impact and effort to our organization, alma mater & team than we must start practicing these skills. It is like same as to rejuvenate our body we go for physical exercises, hence to rejuvenate our self and put people skills at priority we must exercise these behavioral aspect.
I would like to Thanks Professor Vishal Gupta for introduction of our to such thoughtful content.

If you want exposure and a deep dive into the importance of healthy relations at the workplace or personal life. Rather than pointing out persons. Identify specific reasons with concrete proof by reducing human biases. it may change our personality and character completely. But, it shows us a way to achieve our goals with mindfulness, and emotional stability through various Concepts and lessons . Thank you, Coursera, and Thanks Vishal Gupta sir.
