Comment:

Professor Giglio is one of the most effective teachers I've had at NEU. Each and every session incorporates a concrete theme that ties into business or corporate strategy. Be prepared to work hard and think critically (33% of grade is participation btw), and you will leave with a foundation for strategy formulation and execution.

Comment:

Giglio isn't an easy professor and you can tell he's proud of it. So, if you can’t handle constructive criticism than you're not going to do well in his class or in the real world for that matter. If you want to be challenged and are looking for the most ROI from your time spent in classroom than look no further.

Comment:

He is the most unprofessional Professor that I have ever encountered. We had 20-40 page cases that we had to "prepare" for each session, then we did absolutely nothing with them. He is condescending and enjoy belittling and embarrassing students in front of their peers. He might be intelligent, but his social skills are strongly lacking. I lear

Comment:

Giglio has a strong personality. He does not respond well to suck-ups or those who think they are entitled to good grades. At the graduate level, you need to impress this prof with your thought process, work ethic and applications. He cultivates executives not middle management. I had success with him & I will have success in the job market!

Comment:

Giglio give alot of work, weekly cases and random group and individual presentations. The material is interesting and you can learn a great deal from the class. But Prof Giglio is an angry, rude man who is constantly condescending and will not hesitate to embarass a student for any reason in front of the entire class. His behavior was uncalled for

I worked my a** off for Giglio, and never knew where I stood. Now, a couple of years later, I realize how much I learned. Not too long ago I found out it was his Recommendation that landed me my job.

I just finished his class. To be frank, this is a good class, but the teacher is terrible, he actually teaches nothing, and expects the class talking can cover the whole time.

The class itself is very interesting. The HW (case write ups) r challenging & he expects a lot but grades fairly. The midterm also challenging. in general he expects a lot! With that I have no problem. However, professor Giglio could try a bit harder to make the class more enjoyable 4 students. he picks favorites and god help u if u r not it. He c

Comment:

I just finished this class, Giglio is a good teacher and his class is actually challenging (OMG! Run!). The reason people are bashing Giglio is because they are the people in the MBA program that think they deserve B's just for showing up for class and mooching off their peers on group projects. If you actaully value your education take this course

Comment:

Prof. Giglio is not as bad as everyone says. He has high expectations of his students, but you should be able to meet these if you are a decent graduate student. I think a lot of students are not used to having to WORK for a class, so Prof. Giglio intimidates them. Although he does choose favorites and makes it obvious, he is insightful.

Comment:

You never new where Prof Giglio stood and he was completely condescending towards the whole class. Also, he would embarrass people in front of the whole class on top of telling certain people about issues he would have with a student before other students. If you can avoid Prof. Giglio, do so because the time in class with him will be unpleasant.

Complete idiot. We were walking back to his office and he said, "I am talking the elevator, (pointed) you take the stairs." Thinks he is God.

Comment:

What an ****. A public sector hack who thinks he can teach. He lied on his disposition about grades, tries to be intimidating, doesn't like us to ask questions and acts like teaching us was a huge hassle. Even funnier, we learned nothing about strategy that will help us in the real world, which makes this experience even funnier. I mean, even if

This professor was the worst I've had at NU. He is extremely intimidating, berates you when you don't have the correct answer, and is not helpful when questions are asked of him. VERY CRITICAL - AVOID!

Comment:

I am sure that it was Prof Giglio himself who left the smiley face rating. As a teacher he is intimidating, elusive, and demanding. Which is not bad if one learns, unfortunately that was not the case. As an individual, he is misanthropic and bitter. He has this demeanor about him that makes you want to vomit.

Easily the worst class I have taken so far in graduate school. A bit of an egomaniac- which would be acceptable if he were a better teacher. Save yourself the headache and find a different professor.

Great teaacher. Has won teacher of the year for the past three years. That spreaks for itself. Is in his office for help lots of the time. One of the best teachers on campus.
