About

Overview

The Leading the Modern Day Business Specialization is offered by Coursera in partnership with University of Virginia. This specialization covers these essential skills and concepts, and what they mean for companies and businesses. 

Key facts

  • It then introduces design thinking, which provides you with the tools to become an innovative thinker and uncover creative opportunities at every level in every kind of organization.
