RU Open Experience

Kristinn Tryggvi Gunnarsson - Management Consultant and Partner at Expectus

"Working as a management consultant I find lecturing at the Open University to be an excellent opportunity to stay abreast of current trends, share relevant experiences and develop my communication skills. It is an extremely valuable experience and I
treasure the moments spent discussing my favorite subjects with a class of enthusiastic students. Introducing models and
theories to people, that are eager to learn how they can bring them into their workplace and apply them to their situation, is both challenging and rewarding. Working with the well-organized and highly competent staff of RU Open University ensures a smooth, rewarding and fruitful experience for both lecturer and students."

" “Teaching” in Executive Education is not about lecturing but about helping participants to discover new ideas and methods through active participation, dialogue and problem based learning. In essence, it is about each individual sharing experience, insights and practical advice. I can't imagine a more rewarding and interesting activity."

Steinunn Hall – Executive coach and Business administrator

"The Executive coaching course greatly exceeded all expectations and I have never learned so much over such a short period of time. RU Open University's professional staff is always willing and able to assist in every manner and the facilities are exemplary. The classes are presented in a challenging, fun and practical way by a selection of first class teachers. I found the atmosphere in HR is quite unique and
always felt at home when attending class. The course in Executive coaching was my second course at RU and I will most certainly be back again."

"The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is the best course I've attended. The course was extremely effective, meaningful and makes you reflect on yourself and take action. The teachers were extremely professional and fascinating, who inspire you and deliver the course content in an interesting way. I can wholeheartedly recommend the course."
