    About the Course

    The aim of this course is to give you a practical guide to managing people at work. It does not matter whether you are a first time manager in a
    shop or a middle manager in an office environment; the same skills apply to every work place. In the course you will engage with some HR
    theories and then see how they translate into every day working life. At the end of the course we hope you will be better equipped to choose a
    suitable employee, to motivate and appraise your team, to manage conflict in the work place and to lead and make decision on a day to day
    basis.

    This course refreshed me from all the previous trainings I have attended on Management and Leadership. It is good to know that several theories were applied in my current role as HR Manager. Thanks for sharing this to us.

    The course serves as an introductory session to various management theories, loaded full of scholarly journals for those who wish to dwell deeper into each sub-topic. Overall, it can be very useful freshly minted managers.

    The course was very well constructed and gave me important tools as a line manager. However there were some minor typos and mistakes in the text that can be easily fixed in order to provide a smoother learning experience.

    Insightful and challenging course. I would certainly recommend it to all new managers. It’s strength lies in the wide theoretical base that the course draws from and that you can adapt it to suit your environment.

    Good content but not always very well conveyed. At times I had the feeling the support material was a little bit "unprofessional" or rushed in its preparation. All in all still a good course anyway.

    Great course overall and I loved the videos and the condensed content.

    To improve, the authors and lectures might want to check their slide decks and include a couple of visualisations.

    Most of the chapters are full of usefull information.

    But the last one was a bit superficial without deep information about how to actually deal with conflicts nor any framework.
