Good course. Gives good overview in a structured way of Strategy Planning and Execution. However, it requires more work and of course practise.
KM
One of the most practical courses I have attended , It is explained in a very clear way with very interesting examples.

A decent course. Though, this course didn't have any frameworks to learn. Also, this course was mostly theory, void of practical knowledge this time. Still a good enough course.

Excellent course as excellent is THE STRATEGIST'S TOOLKIT book (my guide, my advisor). What I am lerning with Professor Lenox is really of a great value because when I hear his lesson automatically, come to my head many ideas that allow me to see my failures and mistakes that I will try not to repeat again, and at the same time, new ideas flow to be analysed and decide wheather or not to be put in practice for better results.
The course was insightful. The Week 4 module with industry stalwarts speaking on Strategy implementation , was very interesting . Most of all the self assignment and the peer grading, helped to bring the entire learning to perspective.

Thanks to the creators of this course. It was very useful for me, I will recommend it to my friends.
The students of the course are mostly workers, so they may do not have time to complete the final assignment. I think its better to replace it by a final exam.
Good class. Practical teaching about planning and execution is near impossible, and the professors do a good job of getting close to the line and teaching useful frameworks for understanding how to create conditions to improve the probability of successful execution. Wish they had expanded more on the four strategic planning tools with practical examples, however.
The the course content is very strong. The professors articulated clearly how strategy is formulated analyzed and implemented in organizations. Tool and models were explained clearly and how they are used to formulate, analyze and implement strategy. Everything presented is practical, relevant and has application in the current competitive business environment.
UVA and Darden are the best. UVA and Darden are not ranked as the top pubic university and best public business school in the world by several major publications for nothing. I've even studied at Harvard and UVA is way better IMO, plus a nicer campus.
Very well presented and informative. Many people focus is on strategic analysis (what looks good on paper), but the devil is in the delivery. For this reason, it would be good to give greater weight to this aspect within the specialization.
Loved the course. As an individual from a technical background, this course has helped me understand how strategies are made and implemented to avoid pitfalls. Recommended to everyone who wants to learn business strategy.
I enjoyed the Course, it provided many learning opportunities, the course structure of videos and assignments builds the knowledge step by step, which empowered me with more confident to strategy planning and execution.

it was an amazing course, I would highly recommend all those who want to pursue their career in strategy to attend this course. Also make sure to attend the previous related three-course before attending this one
It's quite full with valuable content in this course. And different leaders from different industries sharing in part 4 to recall and link the strategy & execution framework is prefect!
Highly recommended course for organization or an individual who wants to analyze, implement and execute a new strategy in the existing organization.
Practical, useful, with some guest speaker course, which cement all previous and helps to use all previous Strategy toolkit in practice. me like
