Course 1: MOOC – 1 – Introduction to Personal Branding
University of Virginia on the Coursera platform
It was my first experience with personal branding.
What I retained and learned during this MOOC:
- I need to keep my message and content consistent to one niche topic to become memorable within a targeted community.
- Always keep in my mind the impact I leave on others and remember all we have is our own reputation and that’s our brand
- I need to be clear on who I am and what value you bring to a company, project, …
- 80% of what I put out on social media should be content that is of interest to my followers. 20% should be self-promotion.
My mission statement is what drives me, what do I want to do with my life.
« I want to become the leader and the trigger of the innovative, economy and industrial revolution on the circular economy model. In order to face the environmental crisis. »
I asked the people around me what they would say about me when I am not in the room, what words characterize me. It came out:
- Creative
- Determined & Ambitious
- Curious
When I choose my board of directors, I will surround myself with people who :
- Admiration & mutual respect
- People caring and investing in me
- Hontest with me
This MOOC inspire me to :
- Investigate & select content, follow the news and conferences
- Optimize my profiles on social media
- Post good content regularly
- Intervene on current issues

- Highlight my skills and values and my entourage
This MOOC is very complete, and I have enjoyed it a lot since it reviews all the general ideas that we have been studying in the Master.
Course : MOOC 2 – Circular Economy: An Introduction
Delft University of Technology on the edx platform.
Before this course, as this topic interst me a lot, I had already learned a lot about the circular economy (books, podcast, social media, report)
What I learned and retained and learned during this MOOC:
The basic principles that drive these natural systems and serve as the foundation for the circular economy are:
- Waste can be considered as Food
- Build resilience through diversity
- Use energy from renewable sources
- Think as a system
For businesses in order to close the loops, these business processes are useful: acquisition, reprocessing and remarketing.
In the circular economy businesses we classify three different categories of product-service business models : Product-oriented, Use-oriented and Result-oriented.
It is also important to define the “Business Values” that we get from the circular economy, such as :
- Sourcing value
- Environmental value
- Customer value
- Information value
-Although I know the basics of the circular economy relatively well, I really enjoyed learning about how circular economy deal with business.
This MOOC inspire me and reinforced my belief that I want to be recognized as an expert in the circular economy, and in the innovation of the ecological transition. And promote circular economy projects and innovative start-ups.
My final PLE is demonstrated below.
That’s an ambitious and admirable goal! To achieve your vision of becoming a leader in the circular economy and trigger an innovative and industrial revolution, what specific steps are you planning to take? How do you envision yourself driving this transformation and addressing the environmental crisis? Additionally, what skills or expertise do you believe are essential for becoming a catalyst for change in the circular economy model?
