Creativity and Self-development

"In order to lead others, you must first know how to manage yourself. In order to have an impact on the world, you must first understand where it's heading. And in order to get from an idea to something real, you must first have the tools to do it. That's why we created this micro-degree. Empower yourself to create meaningful change."
