Student Testimonials
Chad Moffiet
The facilitators were world-class, the topics covered were super interesting and the cohort was experienced and engaged. I've since used the concepts covered in the course to design better experiments to test strategic decisions, and to improve the way I use system dynamics to identify and communicate strategic opportunities.
