Ensuring your investment in your people counts toward your transformation goals
Programmes can be designed for leadership pipelines, high-potential talent, middle and senior management, specialist or functional groups, or external partners and suppliers. They can run from a single intensive day to multi-month NQF-accredited programmes. Up to 50 percent of content on our accredited programmes can be curated around your organisation. We offer a full suite of accredited programmes from NQF Level 5 to Level 8, designed as a connected system. Each qualification builds on the one before.
Senior management
Postgraduate Diploma
in Management Practice: Level 8
Transform your senior leaders. These programmes cultivate the strategic grit leaders need to champion innovation and lead your organisation through its most critical shifts. Your people will return to the office with clarity of focus to cut through the noise, the practical tools to move from analysis to action, and the leadership confidence to sell their ideas and build a high-performing culture.
Middle management
Advanced Diploma in Management Practice: Level 7
Equip your managers with the operational tools and conceptual clarity to manage teams, budgets, and execution more effectively. Your team will return to the office with greater confidence in their own abilities and a better sense of how the business works. This means less time wasted on doing the wrong things and more time spent on creating positive outcomes for your business.
Junior management
Advanced Certificate Management Practice and Higher Certificate in Management Practice: Levels 5 & 6
Empower your rising talent to trade hesitation for impact. These programmes fuse foundational business acumen with self-mastery. Your team returns to the office with the ability to spot the red flags and the vocabulary and confidence to pitch solutions, creating faster, more fluid ways of working.
Sometimes, all you need is a fast, focused training solution targeting a specific skill or capability. You can also partner with us to co-design a short course tailored to your requirements. From AI leadership and financial acumen, to communication and presentation skills we offer a range of exciting short courses delivered by industry experts.
Adults learn best by doing, interacting, and reflecting. Our programmes are built for co-operation, requiring the courage to lean into the process. We create an outstanding experience where delegates spend valuable time with faculty and peers, virtually or face-to-face, to learn with and from each other.
The workplace is the learning lab. We design your programmes so delegates can immediately test new theories and ideas in the business between content blocks. This ensures they are constantly transferring knowledge into relevant practice, cultivating the critical and innovative thinking needed to succeed.
There is no fixed fee for Executive Education. Every programme is custom-designed and costed based on your objectives, scope, participant numbers, and level of accreditation. The first step is a consultation — not a quote request.
Contact one of our business development partners to discuss your customised learning needs.
With a #1 global ranking for faculty diversity and a #24 spot for teaching quality, Henley is delivering the right blend of diverse thought and academic rigour needed to build next-generation African leaders.
Boitumelo Nthamane Lerefolo, a senior human resources (HR) consultant at Oracle, is a poster child for lifelong learning and the power of investing in your dreams. From personal experience, she knows that the path to transformation and development is filled with twists and turns, so holding yourself to account is key.
It is a statistic that should keep South African boardrooms awake at night: nearly half of all professionals promoted into senior roles are destined to underperform. Now, a uniquely individually-customisable programme from Henley Business School allows executives to skill up where they need it most.
