How can I say this, BORING!!!!! If you like lecture halls and powerpoints, this is your guy. Otherwise, stay away or fall asleep in his class.

Very easy and nice. don't even have to go to class. very cool just try to solve questions in end. u will get an b or A deifnietly

He has a youthful attitude and presence in class. His stories and anecdotes provide fun and levity to an otherwise dull day. His teaching style is engaging (if you are interested in the topic)

Great teaching abilities. I learned a lot from him. He has a lot of experience in all domains. Loved his classes.

He is a nice guy. He wants shy students to speak up. If you are shy you might have a problem. Class meetings are held at the lecture hall, so it is a large class. Exams are easy.

Well considering it was his 1st time teaching the course, it was fun! He had a lot of stories... and a very energetic tone. I would suggest anyone to take him, just for his life lessons. He's a professor that doesn't stick to the book!

Good teacher.

He was ok. I enjoyed his life stories. He tends to brag a lot about his mercedez. He was extremely easy and the book was TOTALLY unnecessary. Everything was from his lecture. I recommend taking him, make sure to sit in the back and catch up on your sleep.

Lectures are very clear but not the most interesting. His class is boring but comes up with a joke or two somethings to keep the class awake.

Easy class, boring ass lecture. Always looking down at powerpoints and talks too much about himself. Homework is cake (save the tech sec. of LA Times for them) and midterm and final are easy. Take him but bring a pillow. Attendance not required. Know when assignments are due though if you plan on ditching.

He is hot!!! too bad taken :(, easy to understand, follow the PPT and you will be in good shape to take his test :)

A lot of people are compaining about his lecture. I do agree that his lecture is pointless, but he gave alot of insight about what goes on inside corporate america. The lower income and minority student might have problem connecting with him but again this is what school is for, a bridge between student and corporation.

I like the class, guys lets face it, he could be worst. Write few papers, study PPT, and you shall be ready :). Peace Sofia.

A sharp prof. with a lot of experience. Gives great examples to clarify issues beyond the textbook.

I agree with the last person. He is good looking too. Yeh.

He gives some very inspiring talks about business and communications. Take his BUS 305 class.

Prof Gadish is an interesting professor. His class is structured based on his power point presentations which are all available at his website. The exams was not fully covered throughout the class but his scoring is very reasonable and quite giving. His exams are all essay questions, but if you know the material, you will do just fine.

He's OK

funny teacher, if you like his jokes and style. Yes, it's a rather vague class, the midterm and finals don't exact cover word-for-word from the Powerpoint he made. So, BS-ing is key. As mentioned, it is all essay.

He has very unusual teaching methods. i am of the opinion that he is trying to show us that there is more to life than just taking the school standard classes.

Interesting real world approach. Funny his way. Critical of everything, which is a good thing.

VERY EASY A. JUST GO TO CLASS EVERYDAY AND DO ALL YOU WORK (IT DOES NOT TAKE MORE THAN 10MIN TO DO) THE MID-TERM AND FINAL IS REALLY EASY, IF YOU ATTEND CLASS. TALKS ABOUT REAL LIFE AND THE CLASS GOES BY FAST. VERY EASY A.

AWESOME PROFF. He's hot, awesome funny, and knows his stuff. He's my fav proff. He's one of those proff that are just pure awesome. <3 H.

I really enjoyed taking this professors class. He was very helpful in terms of the real world. He got straight to the point. Assignments were simple.

Took his course last quarter. He just sais it the way it is. Sharp guy. A lot of business experience. Easy with the grade.

The funniest lecture in my three years in school. Talked about presenting in front of people. He was great!

At the end of last weeks lecture we clapped him. Not a usual thing to do at the end of lectures. He is good.

He is a Knowledgable Professor with a lot of business experiences. Highly recommended for those who want to learn something in business (Real world).

Was a good quarter. Learned a lot from him. He knows his stuff.

He is funny. Take the course. Has all kinds of business experience, and knows his material.

OK Guy, interesting stories. Experienced and informative. Take the course with him. You will understand business better.

Great guy, open minded, encourages participation, might seem intimidating at first, but he's not really like that. Make sure to follow his EXACT directions on the exam. Some of the things he said I did not agree one, but overall he knows his stuff, mostly from real life experiences and not the book. Enjoyed his class, will recommend him to everyone

AMAZING! Learned a lot each week. Real World.

He knows his stuff. Ask him any questions about business. He is good.

just try to pay attention and take notes it will be on his 5 question tests. if u can take gadish instead of the other bus 305 profs, a lot less work...if any. just memorize ur notes u b ok.

He reviewed my resume and his classroom advice helped me get a job. Talk to him if you need help with reviewing your resume.

Great lectures. Started a business after his inspiring lecture on the topic. Make sure you participate. You get points for it.

Don't buy the book! Course is based off lectures only. Attendance is mandatory for points and notes. Midterm and final was easy if you study the notes you have taken in class, only 5 questions each. His lectures were very interesting and informative because he tells you what is expected in the real world today. follow his directions for the exams!

Prof. Gadish is probably the best business communication professor in CSULA. As always, he is intimidating at first, but he is very friendly and funny. He's very straight forward. He only gives people who participate in class an "A". One midterm and one final. Both test only 5 questions from lecture notes. Great overall experience.

Good practical business advice mixed in with his lectures. Common sense tips on how to get a job and be successful in the business world.

Great lecture last night on getting a job in this difficult market. He has many good ideas. Funny way of presenting them.

He is so funny. Tells everything as it is. Blunt but honest. Learned from him more then in any other class.

Great professor, I loved his class. Take good notes do all the class assignments and you'll have a good shot for an A.

One of the best teachers for BUS 305. Weekly assignments, 1 midterm, 1 final. He is sometimes funny, which helps makes the class more enjoyable.

Funny and smart.

Best prof. Very sharp.

Very smart and successful man. Has had a lot of experience in business world. He doesn't give you lessons from a book, but rather the real world stuff of what you will face. Can kind of bore, but overall a great professor.

No textbook required. Does swear a lot in class, but makes the class fun. Definitely full of himself on the first and second class meetings, bragging about his expensive house in Beverly Hills and his success as a consultant. Gives blue book exam and midterm, but doesn't actually look at your work - grades mostly on your final project.

His class is super easy. Attend every class even though he says you don't have to. Take very good notes! He follows the book's topics but his exams are based solely on his lectures. HW every week, but it's easy.

He is great. Knows his stuff. Speaks from experience. Motivates for success. Take the course if you need direction. Grading is fair.

Gadish is smart, and funny. Some lectures are very funny. Covers all topics from the book, but tells it based on his experience.

Knows the topic inside out. Great resource. Bases his lectures on his personal business experience. Learned a lot.

Spent an hour telling us stories last night... leaned more from that then in a marketing class during the whole quarter.

Gadish is funny. Stories with no end... but learned more then from most other profs.

Great understanding of business and IT strategy and simple funny explanations with personal stories and more stories. Makes complicated things simple.

Knows his project management stuff. Many real world examples and tips. Learned more then from any other professor I had.

If you want to learn how to be successful after you graduate , remember what he taught for his life lessons, it is useful in your life. There are some easy homework. As long as you write down everything what he say in the class, you will be fine in the midterm and final. Write fast!! You have probably an hour to answer 5 questions. no books need:)

He knows so much about different topics. Ask him anything related to management or business or management aspects of technology and he has great detailed answers.

He is too funny. Lots of stories. All you do is listen to his stories all evening... and learn so much from him. Amazing.

Very informative and real life experience class. Takes examples to explain nicely and clearly. Not many tests and no books required. Very cool prof with a lot knowledge. make him remember your name then its a easy A.

Such a fun class. You get to learn and have a great time together. Tests are easy and participation in class is important. I would definitely take him as my professor for future classes.

He He He's funny, and knows all kinds of stuff. Learned more from him about business than in many other courses combined. Took 3 courses with him. He's good.

Wow. Started the semester, and he has all these stories that show you the way things are. Blows you away. Take him for a different perspective on things.

This guy is a lunatic. Not sure what to say? As others have said - go to class, make him remember your name (harder than it seems). All tests will be over what he mentions in class. I've never had another professor like him but with that being said - I appreciate his uniqueness. He is unorganized, unreliable, and a little lazy. But def. try him out

Be assured of non-stop entertaining action with Gadish. He is sharp, fast and very opinionated. You will learn and learn and learn, mostly how to think critically and independently. I have become a better thinker with him.

Hilarious. What can I say, he has a great story for every topic he teaches. Very easy to understand. Opened my eyes to so much. And you have to participate to get an A in this course.

This was a great course by a great professor. Changed the way I view the world, and how technology is transforming it. Take the course. Gadish goes by the book covering each chapter with his life stories. Interesting. Learned more than in any other course.

What can I say? He is special. Brilliant in his own way. You will see the world in a different way by the end of the course. Not funny, but makes everything look so funny. You will lough and cry. The way to get an A is take good notes. No book, all from his lectures. Make sure to attend his lectures.

Inspiring very smart teaches based on stories about his life and experiences. Have to attend or you will fail the exams. Easy assignments.

Hehehe... talks and talks. Lots of stories. Learned more than with any other professor. Will take another course with him for sure.

I love his theories about everything. Ask him a question, and he has an interesting answer to share. Will take him again.

Gadish means well. I think he just likes sharing his knowledge (& perhaps bragging about his life a little along the way), rather than teaching from a textbook. Class can get a bit boring at times, but overall a cool class that I would recommend. Just come to class, listen, do a few assignments, and pretty fair and easy midterm/final

Talks a lot. Lots of stories, all about his life but links it extremely well to the topics of the course. You either love his style or hate it. Learned more with him without a book than with professors that go by the book.

We clapped for him at the end of the semester. He deserved it. I love his style. Would take another course with him, but graduating.

Great teacher. Gadish is a story teller. Learned a lot.

Great Course

Great professor, his lectures consist of a mix of stories that relate to course and real life scenario. Clear grading study over notes and you will do good. Test consist of questions peers suggest ; ) Everyone else is FAKE NEWS! Take Gadish!! He is a fun teacher that makes your lectures enjoyable and memorable which help on test!

Gadish is the whole package, good and bad. He knows business and information systems and you will learn regarding those topics. The method of learning said subjects is through "stories" that revolve around one or more of the themes of the course. He will also give real life examples from his life mostly.

Didn't use powerpoints, told stories every night that somehow tied into CIS, random written assignments emailed directly to him, doesn't use Canvas, make sure he knows YOUR NAME, speak up and challenge him on his topics and he will love you. One midterm and one final - each about 5 questions made up by the students.

The key to getting an A in this class: Make sure he remembers your name and speak to him whenever you get the chance in class. Taught us many life lessons that is really useful :)

Gadish is a brilliant blast with non-stop stories. Learned more so far this semester than from any other of my professors.

Honestly, after having taking loads of other professors from the college of business, Gadish stands out as one of the few who makes learning interesting. Don't listen to those who have given him a bad rating, if you are an open-minded individual you will learn many VALUABLE lessons from him. Very chill and easy class all together.

Awesome professor. We clapped for him at the end of the course. I have not been in another course where students appreciated their teacher so much.

He is not a typical professor. Makes the most boring topics interesting. Has stories are eye-opening, like no other professor that I met.

Smart man. Makes a boring subject interesting and shows how it affects daily life. You won't regret taking this class.

Gadish has his haters. The midterm was different. Only 10 minutes and 5 questions. The questions make you think and fast. I think he is fabulous. Sharp as a nail. Grades on a curve and no one gets less than a C. I got an A!

Lots on homework. Not fun part of the course. He is smart, good teacher. Best course ever.

Interesting lectures. You have to think about his real life stories in order to understand the lesson he want to understand. Some students might take offense but I enjoyed learning his point of views. You will learn the basics from the textbook on your own.

Unusually refreshing perspective on everything. Learned more than in other courses. Midterm questions came from his lectures. If you did not attend, you did not get the A.

Read the book and did the assignments. Come to zoom lectures. Exams based on his perspective, not the book. Easy A coming. Interesting lectures.

One of the better professors I have taken at csula. Makes you work. Gotta come to lectures. Hard exams but grades on a curve and ended up with a good grade.

What can I say... for details read the book, for the big picture come to class. He is into strategy and big lessons. Some love it some hate it.

I took his course a few years ago. It's been years. Dont remember much from all the lectures and all the professors. I remember Gadish and his endless stories. He was right. The business world is full of B-S. I did not think much about his stories than, but I appreciate his lessons now. Changed my life.

Half way through. Easy book, easy lectures on zoom. Looking forward to an A.

Easy grade. Easy prof. Easy book.

Easy course.

Overall, the professor is decent. There are weekly discussions (initial post and reply twice). The book you'll need is a book he wrote himself, and it's pretty easy to understand. But for the midterm and final, he will only give you ten minutes to answer (five questions total). You'll really need to study and remember the topics.

Easy course. Prof. wrote his own book available for students on amazon,cheap which is cool. Make sure you turn in assignments on time does not give second chances or makeups. cool videos more about life and personal experience relating to topic of the week. midterm & final is 5 questions with short answers in 10 min. grades on a curve.

Easy course on Canvas with no live lessons or zoom, easy to follow book and videos Hard midterm but the professor grades on a curve so I got an A anyways Easy if you read the book and watch his videos

Was an easy course. Expecting an A.

Professor Gadish has many videos for each chapter of the book he wrote. Easy to understand. Easy grade! I texted him once or twince to ask questions, and he responds quick.

So far an easy course. Read the book. Do the weekly work. Easy grades so far.

Easy book, watch the videos! Did not do well on the midterm, but he curves the grades so this will be an easy A.

One of the easiest courses I took. But lots of assignments. The exams are 10 minutes which is very little time but he curves them.

Easy course and professor.

Professor Gadish only had us meet in class once for the whole semester but did note that, that may not be the case next semester. He is very easy to reach and caring. The work consisted of one discussion per week that was very easy. I bought the text book but he uploaded videos on each lesson so I regret buying it. I would take him again!

he came at the start of the year and told us that he has to come to each lecture and teach but students do not have to. so that was the last time i came. everything online. worked out great. easy. his vids clarify his book.

This is my second time taking him. You can easily contact him if you are confused about the assignments. We had one weekly homework assignment and assignments due at the end of the week; they were incredibly easy to do. My only warning is that the midterm and final are only 10 minutes long for 5 questions, two minutes for each question! He curves!

Easy course, book. Like they said before you gotta do the weekly work or you will be in trouble.

Easy class, but don't let the weekly discussions fool you. The professor's self-published textbook is helpful, and Unstuck study was a lifesaver for exam prep. Just watch out for the strict 10-minute midterm and final!

Easy course if you do a lot of work and submit the assignments on time.

Take this course for an easy A.
