    A very interesting course and well-presented. A suggestion as other participants also mentioned, would be if possible to re-position the video of the presenter outside the presentation slide area - because the video blocked the view of important sections of the presentation slide. Overall, a great course.

    Good content and flow. Only comment would be that the speaker was covering some of the slides.

    I quite enjoyed it. I could easily relate my own personal experiences with Toby's examples and gave me some perspective on how to deal in the future with conflict
