“We also looked at the gap within our industry and discovered that while people know about communication and creativity, they need to learn about the rudiments of the business.

“That vision works well with Henley Business School,” said Babaeko.

Registration for the masterclass is scheduled to close on 24 August. Participants who register between 4 and 18 August will enjoy a 10 per cent discount, while organizations with more than two delegates will enjoy an additional 10 per cent discount.
