I wish there were another conflict specialization on Coursera to choose from.. one that is more modern, up to date, interesting, engaging, less patronizing .. etc. but there isn't. So I guess we're all stuck with this one. Need I say more.

I didn't feel like I learned much. Some of the problems I've experience would take more than just trying to find common interest and compromise.
A lot of conflicts arise from personal agenda and gain and that's very difficult to deal with.

There was anything innovating in the course and the intro of each lesson was extremely loud.
