They may be responsible for leading teams of people and resources and may be measured in terms of their effectiveness in influencing others throughout the organisation.

We can provide you with testimonials from a range of previous participants. For some programmes we have longer case studies that give an insight into how individuals feel about the programme they attended. In addition Henley partners with organisations who send a significant number of participants through one or more Henley programmes perhaps over several years. In a partnership of this kind we can work with the client to conduct an impact survey which assesses the effectiveness of the programmes for both individuals and organisation. Can you run a programme just for my organisation? All Henley Executive Education programmes can be run in-house anywhere in the world. Each programme can also be tailored to the unique dynamics of participants from one organisation. Where else in the world can I attend a Henley open programme? A number of open Executive Education programmes are run internationally each year please contact us for dates and venues. To discuss either of these options please contact Anna Boden: anna.boden@henleybusinessschool.de or telephone her on:
