exhaustive course, well described principles which you do not realize during social interactions. I wish all bosses had these superpowers to understand people more.

This course is mostly a pitch for why emotional and social intelligence matter, which is ironic since I already signed up for a course! The instructor is reading some very basic outlines and uses some terms in ways that aren't clearly defined. The quizzes are riddled with typos that interfere with my ability to understand the questions. The best part is the linked Youtube videos and Ted Talks.

Especailly liked the module on empathy - the rest of the material was rather average. And deducted another star because of the poor quality of the trainer. Perhaps a great speaker in real life, but completely uninspiring in video
