FT Executive Education Ranking 2013
Henley retained its position in the top 40 business schools worldwide in this year’s survey in the Financial Times, with a positive report in four key areas in the Open enrolment programmes ranking.
Education quality
One of our key ambitions is to continually improve the excellence of our learning experience, so it is reassuring to see this reflected in improvements to our ranking in:
Course design
Faculty
Teaching materials
Preparation
International footprint
Besides UK and Finland, Henley has offices in South Africa, Hong Kong and Germany; a new campus is being built in Malaysia and for many years we have been working with an established network of overseas agents in 14 countries. This year’s survey places Henley 28th in the world (number 2 in the UK) for the number of programmes run outside the UK.
Women participants
Henley leads the way in meeting the challenges of achieving successful diversity in business today, with 40% of all participants being female, placing Henley in 24th spot in the world.
Learning environment
We are proud of our beautiful campuses and do everything to provide the ideal environment for reflection, learning and development; our food and accommodation ranking improved two places in this year’s survey.
The Henley approach is to enable people to better understand themselves and their responsibilities while at the same time blending the practice and theories of successful business. We continually strive to improve everything we do so we use rankings as one of the ways we listen to what our customers are saying and we implement the changes that will make a tangible difference to their development and their business.

The Financial Times has recently ranked the Henley Executive MBA 53rd in the world, 20th in Europe and 6th in the UK. This is a very good result and should also be considered in the light of there being about 2500 business schools worldwide.
In spite of considerable volatility in this ranking, Henley Business school has managed to maintain its world-class standing by again playing to strengths across a number of key categories:
Exceeding expectations, career progress and salaries
Henley Business School received a strong endorsement with the ranking of 14th in the world for helping students fulfil the goals they set before embarking on their EMBA. Our year on year improvement shows that we consistently exceed the expectations of our EMBA participants. This result concurs with last week’s Economist ranking that places us among the best in the world for providing networking and employment opportunities.
In terms of long-term salary improvement following completion of the EMBA, Henley Business School remains in the top 20, rising five places for percentage increase in salary. For career progression, based on changes in level of seniority and size of company, we have improved by a further four places in the world.
A rounded experience, through diversity and quality
Henley Business School scores extremely highly, ranked number 2 in the world and top in the UK for the percentage of women in our faculty, also achieving a 36-place improvement in the percentage of women students on our EMBA. The quality of our MBA students was a feature of last week’s Economist ranking which placed Henley at number 1 in the world for our Full-time MBA.

In this year's Economist world rankings, Henley Business School has performed exceptionally well, moving upto 42nd in the world and 12th in Europe.The triple-accredited business school continues to dominate across several key categories:
Number 1 in the world for 'Potential to Network'
The Henley alumni community continues to expand, not only in numbers but also in reach. The school now boasts alumni groups in 41 countries, providing one of the greatest opportunities for students and alumni to build relationships and create genuine business contacts on an international scale.
Number 1 for 'Student Quality'
Students attending Henley again prove to be of the very highest calibre. Ranked number one for three years running for 'Student Quality' and climbing 14 places for 'Student Diversity', students valued the balance of their cohort in terms of management experience, internationalism and gender.
'Personal Development and Educational Experience'
Henley continues to improve, climbing two places this year to 13th in the world. This outstanding score was influenced by students' assessment of faculty quality, programme content, overseas exchange programmes and facilities.
Career and Salary
One of the notable features of this year's rankings was the rise of 34 places in the percentage of those who had secured employment after three months of graduating, and Henley MBA graduates remain firmly in the top quartile for 'Salary Level'.
In response to the ranking, Dean of Henley Business School, Professor John Board, comments:
"Not only do these results confirm the Henley Full-time MBA as one of the world's finest, with world-class faculty and students, excellent links with industry and an international alumni community, they prove that Henley remains a leading player in a complex global MBA market. This news testifies to our continuous commitment to improve the all-round quality of the MBA experience."
