• Third party power imbalance
• Lack of soft skills

• Influence of corporate governance.

I am really enjoying the course so far. I enjoy the way Mike delivers the content as he shares experience he has so that we can relate to the learning objectives. I find this way of learning much better than sticking solely to the book.…
