A free class from Global Sovereign University
Every organization has two structures in the same building. One is published, drawn in boxes, and says who manages whom. The other is drawn in decisions, handovers, information and authority — and it is the one that determines whether anything actually gets done. Fourteen lessons, taught from the book, free and with nothing to sign up for.
The chart shows reporting lines. The work follows dependency lines.
Every lesson marked solid. You can now read a business the way it actually runs.
Working the lessons is practice, and practice does not earn a certificate. The certificate comes from a separate exam graded on our server, so no answer key ever reaches your browser and no score can be reported by the student.
Thirty questions drawn from all fourteen lessons, a new order every attempt, and 80 percent to pass. It records comprehension of the book. It is not a professional qualification or a credential issued by any authority.
