Thought this was very helpful, especially the time management skills piece. Think some of the AI usage stuff should be dropped.

Really good course. It has great material to learn, spark curiosity, case study, roleplay and if you invest your time wisely, this course will help you becoming great manager. Remember, you may need to revisit often to get a suggestion or maybe an idea about a problem.
Best of luck!!!

En un mundo actual saturado de profesionales con el mismo título, la diferencia aparece en qué tanto queremos, de manera personal, mejorar nuestras habilidades técnicas y blandas, y de cómo trasladamos esta mejora hacia nuestro equipo y nuestro entorno.
Lo recomiendo.
