Very illustrative with excellent examples. The teacher connects anthropological concepts to common situations in business teams and business decisions.

Very Insightful. Dr. Urban provides a lot of relevant examples to help the student understand things in a simpler, contextual manner.

Decent course, great insights with a huge range od examples to get you thinking. You just apply the logic to your corporate/business environment.

I definitely have a better understanding of hiring practices and leadership styles and the affects of culture on their successful implementation. This help me to better understand how to implement needed changes in an already set culture and why certain individuals would be a better hire over others, not simply based on skill because they can be learned, but based on culture as that is much more difficult to teach, especially if someone is uncomfortable in a situation or with change. Great Class!

Although it is interesting to hear this topic taught by an anthropoligist the content was very limited.

This was not the hardest class I've ever taken on Coursera. I enjoyed the subject matter but wish I could be more challenged.

It is a course for life not only leadership. I just must missed a textual summary of each course.

Dr. Urban is an excellent communicator, an expert in his field, and clearly loves his subject matter. That said, I had hoped to come away with more practical and experiential learning. I was hoping that the learning here would be directly translatable into a business environment and to come away with more business and interpersonal insights and fewer definitions which I fear I will soon forget due to lack of use. I must admit that by the end of the course I had tired of the academic tone and found the articles to be obtuse, to borrow a word from "Shawshank Redemption." Admittedly, the problem was equally due to my misdirected expectations and I bear some responsibility for the mismatch here.
