6 sections • 15 lectures • 2h 4m total length
Introduction 1 lecture • 16min
Overview of key business management principles
This lesson is a bird’s eye view of the critical aspects of business management that we are going to learn in the course. These areas of management are based on both what the textbooks say, but even more importantly, what I have found to be the most useful out in the real world managing businesses. 15:45
Motivation and Recruiting 4 lectures • 41min
The Power of Motivation
Motivated teams produce results. This may be simple and obvious, but the key is how to motivate teams in the modern working environment in order to achieve the goals of the business. This lesson will teach you the true importance of motivation in today’s workplace, and why without it, you will lose to the competition. 12:39
How to Motivate Your Team
While motivational theories and research haven’t changed that much over the years, the modern workplace is changing rapidly. In this lesson you will learn how to motivate your team to achieve the results that are necessary to succeed in today’s hyper competitive business environment. 11:50
The Importance of Recruiting
The importance of recruiting a high performing team cannot be overstated. Without a strong team, your business will be very lucky to outperform your competition in today’s competitive environment. But with effective recruiting, you can overcome almost any business obstacle. 06:09
How to Recruit a World Class Team
In order to recruit a world class team in business, you need to offer more than the competition. In some cases, you may simply not be able to offer a higher salary or better benefits than large multinational corporations that you are competing with you for talent. But there is always a way to make your offer more attractive. In this lesson you will learn specific strategies to recruit top talent successfully. 10:10
Meetings and Time Management 4 lectures • 26min
The Importance of Meetings
Meetings are extremely important in business. But knowing how many to have, for what purposes, and how to run them effectively is not as well understood by most managers as it should be. In this lesson you will learn how important meetings can be to improving productivity. 07:41
How to Run Meetings Efficiently
In this lesson you will learn specific strategies and tactics that will help you maximize the effectiveness of meetings while actually having your team look forward to them! 06:36
How to Increase Productivity Through Meetings
Meetings are notorious among workers for being boring, useless, and often a general waste of time. But with effective management, you can actually make meetings fun and productive, while having a positive impact on the bottom line, instead of having everyone feel like they would be better off just working on their to do list. 04:16
Powerful Time Management Techniques
Time management is super important in business and research shows that a lot of it is wasted. Imagine if you could increase the amount of time your team is actual working on critical tasks by ten or twenty percent? 07:55
Controlling Costs and Increasing Sales 3 lectures • 21min
How to Control Costs in Any Business
In this lesson you will learn various ways to control costs that are often overlooked even by experienced business managers. Learn to aggressively control costs and improve your bottom line without having to increase sales by a single unit. 08:50
The Importance of Consistently Increasing Sales
Another one that sounds obvious. Of course we want to increase sales! But the idea of focusing relentlessly on incremental increases over time is a subtle but extremely effective approach to long term growth and ultimate success of any business. Many managers give up because it seems like what they are doing isn’t working and sales are not growing fast enough. But even increasing sales by 5% every single year over time will lead to great success over the course of many years. 05:26
How to Consistently Increase Sales in Any Business
There are ways to increase sales no matter what product or service you are selling and to have sales increase consistently over time. In this lesson you will learn highly effective strategies and tactics to achieve consistent long term revenue growth for your business. 06:59
Managing Cash Flows 2 lectures • 16min
The Importance of Managing Cash Flow
Research has shown unequivocally that the number one reason for business failures is mismanagement of cash flows. In other words, businesses are chronically under-capitalized. To put it another way, they run out of money! But increasing sales and profits are not the only ways to bring money into a business. In order to get through recessions and tough times, managers have to understand how to manage cash flow effectively and use all of the tools at their disposal. 06:48
Strategies for Obtaining Capital
In this lesson you will learn more strategies to obtain capital when other avenues have dried up. In business, there are always many ways to accomplish any objective, but sometimes you have to learn to think outside the box! 08:57

Instructor
Greg Vanderford
Teacher and Entrepreneur
My courses are designed based on my many years as a teacher and student of education and business. I hold a master’s degree in business education and have been designing curricula, teaching, and doing corporate training for almost 15 years.
The business, language, and chess courses that I have built on Udemy are a reflection of this experience and dedication to education. My goal is to reach as many people as possible with my courses, which is why I have chosen the internet and the Udemy platform as my ideal mode of delivery.
The following is a little more about my expertise and background. I was born and raised in Sandpoint, Idaho. I attended the University of Idaho where I earned a bachelor’s degree in Business Management and Human Resources in 2004. After a few years in the work force as an account manager I moved to Vietnam where I lived for 9 years.
After arriving in Vietnam I and a small group of motivated individuals launched and ran a sports training company called Saigon Sports Academy. We coached sports such as soccer, chess, tennis, and basketball as well as ran large sporting events such as tournaments and leagues. After 5 years of building the business, I led the successful sale of the company to a local conglomorate (XLE Vietnam, owner of the Saigon Heat pro basketball franchise).
I have been fluent in the Vietnamese language for many years and enjoy teaching the language to other expats and non-native speakers. In addition, I have spent many years training with chess grandmasters in Vietnam and hope that my courses will help aspiring business people, Vietnamese language speakers, and chess players reach their goals.

Sessions are good but provide mainly conceptual guidance and advice with less in the way of tangible frameworks and taxonomies through which to improve business practices
