Steve Ballinger, MBA
A VIP Udemy Instructor Partner who has helped more than 1 million learners in 220+ countries build practical skills for work.
My focus is helping professionals use ChatGPT and AI with more confidence, clarity, and practical purpose. I’m also in the top 3% of ChatGPT users worldwide (According to OpenAI) which means I spend a lot of hands-on time testing what actually works in real use and not just chasing the latest AI hype.
Many people know AI is important, but they feel overwhelmed by the constant updates, confusing features, and pressure to keep up. They wonder: What should I actually use AI for? Am I prompting it correctly? How do I avoid generic answers? What is safe to put into AI? How do I avoid losing my own judgment?
That is where I can help.
My style is friendly, practical, and engaging. I like to make complex topics feel simple, useful, and even fun. Instead of flooding you with theory or buzzwords, I focus on real workplace problems turning scattered thoughts into useful next steps.
My courses are designed to be clear, practical, and easy to apply. Instead of overwhelming you with theory or technical jargon, I focus on examples, prompts, workflows, and step-by-step demonstrations you can actually use.

Great Course. We learned many things- Identify and understand the key principles and characteristics of various leadership styles, including authoritative, democratic, servant, transformational, etc.
By Lauren Vo on 8/10/2026
The instructor's rapid speech is difficult for me to follow and often seems rambling. I disagree with the specific use of ChatGPT to determine my leadership style.
By James Lisonbee on 12/22/2025
It was what I expected, but covered information I knew from other courses without adding much in the way of new insights. The instructor has a lot of experience, it would have been nice to hear about personal stories of things that worked and that didn't work.
By Raghib Harb on 10/8/2025
Great course, the detailed breakdown in the various types of leadership styles allowed me to reflect on what type of leadership style I most relate to and help me develop that further. In addition, the various types of leadership styles provided valuable insight as sometimes as a Leader I might be in different situations where I will have to adapt different leadership styles, this is important as good leaders are usually highly adaptable.
By Anouschka Freyny on 9/10/2025
It was great to learn about the variety of leadership styles. I was hoping that the course would go into a bit more detail around how you can lead people with certain personality traits or how you can manage certain working traits
