Some of the best career advice you’ll get won’t come from a textbook. It’ll come from a room like this one.

Over 30 of our current Finance students recently heard from James Hughes, Investment Director at Quilter Cheviot. After two decades in the industry, his message was that markets keep shifting, so organisations have to spot change early and adapt.

Thanks to Quilter for hosting, and to Neil Poole (MBA grad), who runs London Drinks every month.

Profit or purpose? Growth or responsibility?

Maybe the real question is why we treat them as separate.

In Episode 3 of Reading Ahead, Chancellor Paul Lindley OBE is joined by Jon Foster-Pedley, Dean of HenleyAfrica, and entrepreneur and Reading alumna Amy Clarke to ask whether sustainability can simply become part of how business is done.

Jon’s Leading Insight article explores why sustainability only creates real value when it’s built into the heart of a business, not treated as an add-on. Head to our website's News section to read the full article.

Episode 3 is out now. Search ‘Reading Ahead’ on YouTube or Spotify to watch or listen.

32nd in the world! We've achieved our strongest-ever position in the Financial Times Executive MBA Ranking 2026, placing us 17th in Europe and 4th in the UK and among the world’s leading executive MBA providers.

The ranking recognises:
👉 Alumni salaries averaging $212,000 three years after graduation
👉 1st in the UK and 6th in the world for participant work experience
👉 1st in the UK for International Course Experience for the fifth consecutive year, and 7th globally

Professor Anne Dibley said: “We are delighted to have continued to climb the FT Executive MBA Rankings. Our Executive MBA helps students develop attributes and skills needed to navigate the complexity of today’s turbulent world, embracing curiosity, empathy and humility.”

The picture goes beyond careers, with Henley ranking 1st in the world for women serving on the advisory board, 9th for female faculty representation and 14th for female student representation. We are also 22nd in the world for ESG and net zero teaching, and have retained our position as the UK’s top-ranked business school for carbon footprint performance, placing 19th globally.

You don't have to be "in the mood" to go to the gym. Sometimes going is what gets you in the mood.

Today, the SportsPark gym at Whiteknights campus is free for all students and staff, and it's the perfect way to mark World Mental Health Day tomorrow. Even a short session can clear your head and take the edge off a rough week.

📅 Friday 9th October, 07:00 - 22:00
🚶 No booking needed, just turn up

A CEO, a VP of clinical development and a Senior IT Engineer met for the first time today. They'll be solving problems together for the next two years.

Our new cohort from across the globe has arrived at our Greenlands campus to begin their Executive MBA. Chief People Officer, Production Manager, Director of Qualifications and Standards, Sales Leader, Founder - and that's only part of the list.

The mix matters because leadership problems rarely stay inside one function. The person who has never done your job could be the one who spots what you've stopped seeing.

During the Starter Workshop, students from our Nordic, South African and UK cohorts will form their syndicates, meet their tutors and build the foundations of leadership, behaviour and personal development that will shape the programme ahead.

Programme Director, Dr Ana Graca, commented: "The Starter Workshop is one of the highlights of our year. What really makes it special is the connection. You can hear it in the conversations and feel the energy in the room!"

Today's Placement Fair was the perfect example of what happens when ambitious students and employers come together. It was brilliant to see so many eager students turn out.

They arrived with questions, asked employers what they could offer and left with a clearer idea of their next steps.

For employers, it was a chance to meet next year's placement students before the graduate market does.

Thank you to everyone who came.
