    I want to express my sincere appreciation for the depth and practical relevance of this course. It has been a transformative experience that provided me with a much clearer lens through which to view team dynamics and my own leadership style. This content has significantly boosted my emotional intelligence. I now feel more confident in my ability to work in a collaborative environment where diverse personality types feel understood and valued. Thank you for providing such a high-quality academic and professional resource.

    Content is very interesting and informing.
    Sound quality is bad.
    Some questions have wrong grammar or wording.
    The teacher focuses too much on her own type.
    The summery had additional and interesting info, but that is not what a summery is.
    It was a bit annoying, but I did learn a lot.

    It's amazing course. I was able to learn how to have better management thru Types. I would recommended for more foundational and organized academic understanding for MBTI.

    Overall, this was a valuable and informative course. However, I was surprised by the low sound quality such a detailed and content-rich course would have greatly benefited from the use of a proper microphone to enhance clarity and learner engagement…

    I really don't like that you don't know which questions you got wrong or what the correct answer should be on a quiz. The Knowledge Checks are super simple but the end of lesson / course quiz have some questions that seem tricky and, if you miss them, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Also, I don't like the dependency on an external, for pay offering. I think the course should be more independent and self contained.

    Taking Leading with Power Skills: Working with Personality Types on Coursera was an enlightening experience. The course offered practical insights into understanding different personality types and how to work effectively with each. I particularly appreciated the real-life examples, engaging content, and clear breakdown of MBTI type indicator. It helped me reflect on my own strengths and how to collaborate better with others. The course was well-structured, easy to follow, and immediately applicable to both personal and professional settings. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve communication, leadership, and team dynamics.

    Excellent Course. Made it very simple to understand. It not only helped understand my strength and weakness but to understand others as a team.
