Ratings and Reviews for High Stakes Leadership: Leading in Times of Crisis

I learned valuable lessons from the program. I think it can be improved by: · Making it more visibly interesting. Current presentation is very one dimensional · The video often repeats the reading portion. The main challenge I had was with the approach that the Organization is a unified entity with a clear mission and objectives. I personally don’t believe it is necessarily so but rather that the Crisis manager needs to look at the organization with better resolution of the interests of individuals and departments within the organization. These individuals are additional stakeholders with great importance to crisis resolution

Great instructor and course materials

Excellent course! It brings an exceptional guidance for dealing with crisis situations. Highly recommended both for experienced crisis management professionals (I have seen this well-known topic from a new fresh perspective) and beginners. The course is full of interesting examples from a real business life and practical advice that you may use in your crisis management role. Professor Mike Barger is a great teacher. I also value a nice useful workbook offered to learners.

MCQ options are somewhat confusing and clumsy.

I really love this coursse

In our world which is ever-increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA), organizations of all forms should anticipate that crises will eventually occur and that we can be placed in positions wherein we may not have sufficient information, and perhaps resources, to make and implement decisions that can make-or-break these establishments. This offering comprehensively provides (1) a leadership toolkit to help prepare for, cope with, and mitigate crisis scenarios and environments and (2) the reasons to invest time and resources for such endeavors. I still do not see myself as a leader in most cases, let alone one that can step up during high-stakes episodes for organizations I am affiliated with. Nevertheless, I now have a clearer view of what to expect from those who will lead and, perhaps, how to contribute to such leadership efforts. Drawing from the experience and expertise of the course instructor, great emphasis is given to best practices for stakeholder understanding & engagement (and a practical definition for “stakeholder”), promoting and developing organizational resilience, the “anatomy” and diversity of crisis environments and the responses they elicit, and the “blueprint” of effective crisis leaders. Overall, this is an excellent and enlightening course that will boost, in one way or another, one’s soft skills.
