Henley Executive MBA applicants can from this year choose to take advantage of the exceptional scope of expertise across Henley Business School through a range of newly launched themed MBAs.

These themed MBAs are designed for experienced, practising managers who are looking for a world renowned general management MBA but with a particular application to three different industries - Corporate Finance, Construction Management and Real Estate.

Three MBA themes will be delivered by the Henley Business School's ICMA Centre, School of Real Estate and Planning and the University of Reading's School of Construction Management. Participants will study as part of the executive MBA programme following the core curriculum whilst periodically studying tailored modules bespoke to their subject theme at approriate points in time.

Associate Professor Susan Rose, The Associate Head of the School of Management responsible for The Henley MBA said 'I am delighted to work in collaboration with colleagues of the Henley Business School and The University of Reading who have such strong industry connections and reputations in their respective fields. This enables us to offer MBA participants something really different. The themed programmes provide the best of both worlds for those who want general managerial development whilst applying it to the very specific challenges of their sector and thereby demonstrating commitment to their organisation.'

The Henley Executive MBA is a two year part-time programme aimed at aspiring senior managers who wish to develop their management competency as well as focus on their own personal development, alongside their full-time employment.

In certain sectors - notably banking, energy and telecoms - customers are exhorted almost continuously to consider ‘switching’ supplier. Organisational structures have been developed to facilitate switching and the strategy of switching tends to be strongly supported by the regulator in those industries. For example, over 40 UK banks and building societies now participate in the ‘Current Account Switch Service’ run by the payment service, Bacs. In the energy sector, there is an ‘EnergySwitch guarantee’ and the regulator (Ofgem) provides advice on how to switch to a new supplier, as does Ofcom for the telecoms sector.
