The Henley Experience

Greenlands campus, on the banks of the river in Henley-on-Thames, is the ideal place to reflect and to be inspired. Our Executive and Flexible MBA activities are based here. Whiteknights, in Reading, is a thriving, dynamic knowledge hub, making it the ideal location for our Full-time MBA. Our alumni make up some of the worlds most influential and inspiring business leaders. They are all making a difference to the world of business thanks in part to the outstanding quality of education they received from Henley. In many instances, Henley changed their lives. We offer regular networking opportunities to enable you to engage with business according to your interests. We develop your networking skills to ensure that you achieve meaningful connections and outcomes.

Supporting you
Personal development
At Henley, personal development is woven into the fabric of the MBA and is an assessed module complemented by interactive workshops. We take a wholeperson approach, which means we begin by acknowledging the complexity of balancing work, home, study and career, as well as planning for the challenge to engage with the world that will come with a senior management role. Reflection, dialogue and goal-setting are at the heart of personal development at Henley. You will be surprised just how much you can learn about yourself when you learn how to listen to, and share with, each other. Experience plays just as important a role in this aspect of the MBA as it does in any other. The ability to find personal fulfilment whilst also driving wealth creation for organisations and communities, all with character and integrity, requires selfawareness and humility. This is a personal journey, in search of the better question, not the better answer. And that is the central message of personal development.

Career development
We understand that one of your key motivations for taking the Henley MBA is to accelerate your career. For those of you who are self-sponsored you are probably rethinking your career direction, so work starts from day one on career planning. It is so vital we have placed it at the heart of the programme. Henleys career service provides a number of workshops to help develop the skills required to promote yourself during and after your MBA.
