Research impact

We are invested in forward-thinking research to advance African knowledge and build future-fit managers and leaders.
KNOWLEDGE DRIVES ECONOMIES
And African knowledge can help build a stronger Africa and a richer world.

Climate leadership

Henley Africa is joining the call for more urgent action on climate change as part of the Business Schools for Climate Leadership in Africa (BS4CL-Africa) initiative. Our parent institution, the University or Reading, is recognised to be a leading institution for climate change research.
MOBLISING FEARLESS LEADERS FOR A JUST TRANSITION
Activist business leaders understand the stakes and have the confidence and moral compass to demand to be held accountable by their staff and their communities, as well as their shareholders.

Celebrating African creativity

Why is ‘resurgence’ the theme of our new campus art?
AN OPPORTUNITY FOR UPLIFTMENT
5 contemporary visual artists came together to create an artwork on Henley’s Johannesburg campus showing the value of collective thinking, conceptualising and implementation. The work serves as a form of ‘yin and yang’ expressing a duality and an opportunity for upliftment and change in the face of adversity as we leave the COVID experience behind us.

Virtual reality

At Henley we are harnessing VR to bring practical insights alive. This can help to develop relevant, empathetic and social-minded leaders who are equipped to understand and tackle the complex issues of our time.
TAKE YOUR FIRST STEPS IN THE METAVERSE

Our compass is Africa

We create leaders with disciplined minds, clear thoughts, and powerful purpose, who want to make a difference on this continent..
