Henley: The Management College

The Management College at Henley was founded in 1946. It was established under the name “Administrative Staff College”. At that time this was an appropriate title because administration was defined as the highest form of management. Over the years, it has become known as Henley. The College is the longest established management school in Europe and the seed‐bed for many developments in management education in the U.K. and the rest of the world. Many thousands of senior managers from industry, commerce, financial institutions and the public service and from all over the world have attended Henley courses.
