We develop responsible leaders for today's fast-changing business world. Henley offers two study routes to achieving our world-class MBA:

Executive MBA - Global
An immersive study journey via Henley-based, in-person modules, online workshops and practical study visit overseas, which brings you significant leadership development and career focus, and rich international networking experiences. This programme has a unique focus on enabling personal and professional development, with extensive opportunities for executive coaching throughout the programme.

The programme has a special focus on responsible leadership, through the South Africa immersion visit where students work in teams on challenges facing NGOs. In addition, students have the opportunity to deepen global understanding through the US immersion visit, working in international groups on challenges facing emerging international businesses. There are opportunities for networking with the diverse, international cohort in every stage of the programme.
