Barker as she provides a warm, supportive atmosphere in which learners are encouraged to intensively explore themselves in order to create a personal brand that authentically and effectively communicates their values and professional gifts.

The instructor is passionate about the topic. Unfortunately it does not feel like a proper course/training, but more like random talks on a few topics.. I was expecting a better coverage, more systematic course from such reputable university.

Unfortunately the course was not as helpful as I would have expected. The videos, though with interesting titles, are not covering the topics in depth at all. It feels very empty and a loss of time. But easy to watch in between.

Totally disappointed with the course. The intructor was very personable, but the contents of the coruse lacked depth--everything was nearly common knowledge. I was expecting something more academic to be honest.

The Course touches Subject Matter very frivolously. Almost no concrete ideas to draw from it. Do not waste time doing this. watching few YouTube videos might give you better workable ideas & dos/donts.

Not so helpful. This generation already is familiar with everything taught here. Withdrawing the Honor Code Certification is so unethical. Not going to take any courses from Coursera from now on.

This course is not related to modernity. I guess nowadays these are the basics we all know, therefore the course needs a significant update.

Worthless course. Poor quality control and full of the instructor's own opinions rather than anything substantial about personal branding.

There was not much information about branding, the course was mostly about your image on social media. The title is a bit misleading.

Lacks concrete examples on how to use social media tools. Repetitive explanations and rather concentrated on the lecturer's person.

I could not proceed past the first three questions as the page was static and I could not go to the next question/ page ????
