Quality 5/5Difficulty 1/5
Amazing professor! Super fun and easy to talk to. This class is all project based. You get to create a company with a group of students that you choose. You are even allowed to profit off of the business you create and keep the money! Super fun class. We also had a lot of "project work days" so you usually won't have to meet for class.

Chad is an interactive, funny, and overall entertaining guy. His main goal is making you have fun while you learn. Never a dull moment and I hope to take a course with him again!

Chad is honestly one of the most engaging, interesting professors I've had at UW. He works really hard to provide insightful, useful material and takes his time to give quality feedback. Assignments and projects are fairly graded. Excellent class, would recommend him to anyone!

Honestly one of the best professors I've had in my 5 years at UW. Love his pop culture references, the way he presents the material is flawless, and he's a cutie to boot. A lot of work, but he makes it fun. Take this class!

Great, great class. Chad cares about the students, introduces interesting cases to evaluate and is very funny. The workload isn't easy, but if you put the work in, you will get a good grade. The best class I've taken in college thus far, I'd recommend it to anyone interesting in starting their own business, or just interested in management
