Successful leaders help their organizations create value, earn profits and outperform rivals. That requires having an enterprise mindset—thinking critically about how your organization operates and how it can improve.

In this course, you'll learn how to evaluate and support your company’s financial health, business model, and competitive strategy.

You'll learn how to lead effective group decisions and how to improve decisions with data. As you build these skills, you’ll develop your ability to think, act, and speak like a leader.
How can you best help your organization thrive? By developing your business acumen—knowledge of how organizations operate, create value, and gain competitive advantage. Take your career to the next level by learning business and finance basics, and developing an enterprise mindset.
