TOP REVIEWS FROM BUSINESS STRATEGIES FOR SOCIAL IMPACT
Very interesting course, however the Impact Investment module was sometime a bit too technical which prevented from understanding the entire outcome of some experiments or studies.
This course is really great to get insight on better understanding of what company should run social impact program.
This is a very awesome course. Although it is a relatively new field for me, I have really learned so much about social impact and investment in general. I really hope to put this to good use.
This course made me think much deeper about purpose and passion and how I'd like to contribute to greater social impact in my career.
