TOP REVIEWS FROM DESIGNING THE ORGANIZATION
Professor Leblebici is incredible teacher, and the Courses' materials are so powerful, and very important to learn how to implement them almost in any type of business!
The course is nice but the wording of the course is heavy and is confusing most of the time.
You've to put a lot of effort in trying to understand what the instructor means or want to say/ask.
This course was good and the professor did a good job explaining content, however, it didn't really seem like useful information to me since it was extremely theoretical.
This course is very well designed. It makes you think and understand the main ponder points you need to think about when designing or redesigning the organization.
