Managerial Skills
This class for me was particularly interesting because although I had already seen some of the theories of leadership and motivation in human resources and organizational behavior class’s, managerial skills was completely different. Why was it completely different? Because when teachers used to talk to me about this I didn’t buy it. Why didn’t I buy it? Because the teachers didn’t act according to what they were talking about and didn’t transmitted it to the class. I was very impressed by the skills of our teacher to keep the class motivated and keep it interesting for everyone and getting us involved. We were getting the examples in every class. The negotiation topic I feel was really important. It was great that they gave us a structured methodology of how to approach this type of situations and how to make our strategy to obtain our interests. Definitely I believe this is one of the most important tools given to us in the course not only it applies in our professional life but is something to apply in other areas of our life.
Also the feedback given to us was of great value. The fact that in this course we were given the opportunity to present in a comfortable environment to practice is priceless. In my case Chris pointed out some weaknesses that ill definitely work on throughout the master and for future presentations. I would like to end this entry giving thank to Chris for giving us a great course and encouraging us to improve in whatever we do. Like Chris said when he quoted Abraham Lincoln “Whatever you are, be the good one”.
