I like the personality of the presenter, the openness and his background. The presentation is very catchy and he is up front. I look forward to hearing more about what happens with the two cousins and the struggling hotel. The presenter keeps things light, includes humor while explaining key concepts. These key concepts are thoroughly explored and presented in different areas and brought home with "real life" example.

By Barbara M. Ota on 8/24/2026

Not sure-kinda confusing as how to get started...

By 士 宮本 on 6/20/2026

This SWOT analysis reminded me that it is important to understand not only a business, but also ourselves. Knowing my own strengths and weaknesses is the first step to improving as a leader.

By John Merritt on 4/29/2026

Every course is a treasure. Rahul ties learning with real life events and helps build empathy and involvement. Great material that is relevant and immediately useful.

By Piers Vaughan on 3/28/2026

Excellent coverage of the SWOT analysis process. I particularly liked the continuing example showing how each step is applied through the ongoing Case Study.

By Richana Shields Straughter on 12/27/2025

This course was very informative! I learned a lot about creating a SWOT analysis and different types of Alternatives techniques that will enhance the analysis. Thanks for this course!

By Tad Spencer on 9/5/2024

I think the materials are excellent and provide a detailed blueprint for executing a thorough SWOT analysis. The downloads are a welcome resource that I find quite useful and I appreciate how easy they are to manage and edit. I am leaving this rating prior to completing the entire class. I am through Section 10 of 16 and the class is already worth its weight in gold. This has exceeded my expectations. The presenter is obviously not a native English language speaker and that is not at all an issue. He is knowledgeable, has an enjoyable positive energy, and I'm even tickled by his occasional attempts at humor. I will refer back to this material, often.

By Christine Knierim on 3/19/2024

So, far it has been very informative. I scored 10 out of 10 and I did not have to refer to my notes. It was just simply listening and paying attention. Good information!

By Arya Satrya on 1/25/2024

This course is straight forward and directly explaining important points that you need to know, easy to understand as the explanation is clear and presented with related real life anecdote. Also, this course provides materials ( ppt ) to self-study and to recall certain subject in the course.

By Robert Griner on 1/11/2024

I am thrilled with the addition of this new course. I jumped right on it. I love learning, and I am excited to add another tool to my arsenal. Thank you for this educational experience.
