“Leading Organizations and Strategy” is one of my favorite courses so far. The course, as the name suggests, primarily deals with the issues of people, strategy and leadership.  The class for the subject is highly interactive and offers opportunities for  learning from experiences of people from different cultural and professional backgrounds.

Office work, visa-documentation, trips with friends (there have already been four this year and at least, one more in pipeline) and some more stuff..  Amidst all these, I finally found time for something that I was planning for over a year now: [...]
