Graded: Students must complete all grade assignments to pass the course. Description: What is success? How am I holding myself back? What can I do to be more successful? To answer those questions, many experts would encourage you to draft a plan, partner with an āaccountability buddy,ā and review your progress weekly. For Whartonās Richard Shell, it starts with something more: self-awareness. That is a big part of his āSuccessā class, which is based on decades of research. In this course, students will begin by asking questions about themselves ā their true beliefs, motivations, goals, and talents. In doing so, they will define what success really means to them. At the same time, students will examine the values and habits followed by highly successful people, along with the best practices for achieving both success and happiness (they are sometimes mutually exclusive) in both their lives and careers. Review: āThis was a wonderful course that helped me to understand myself and my definition of success better. Although some information seemed a bit boring and unnecessary to me personally (maybe because Iāve known it before), the exercises were truly unique and which I never heard of before. Professor Shell is very interesting to listen to! Very pleasant and wise person.ā For additional reviews, click here.
