1. Course Content and Value Proposition Paywalled Content: I found it disappointing to encounter prompts for additional purchases within the course materials. Having already paid the Coursera enrollment fee, I expect all necessary learning materials to be included without further financial barriers. Module Redundancy: The content in Module 1 felt very introductory and consists of information easily found in free online resources. To maintain a high academic standard, this module could be condensed or eliminated to make room for more advanced leadership theories. 2. Curriculum Focus & Secularism Theological vs. Academic Focus: Module 4 felt overly focused on religious perspectives. As this is an organizational leadership course rather than a theology or religious studies program, I found this direction inappropriate. I would suggest focusing more on the universal, secular applications of ancient wisdom rather than the religious context itself. Political Neutrality: I question the inclusion of political discourse within a course focused on organizational management. Maintaining a neutral, professional environment is essential for a diverse group of learners to focus on leadership skills rather than political leanings. 3. Instructional Design & Pedagogy Assessment Timing: I noticed several instances where quiz questions appeared before the relevant material had been taught. For a logical learning journey, assessments should strictly follow the delivery of the content to ensure fair and effective testing of knowledge.
