Marc Jackson
MSc Leading and Managing in Healthcare Organisations

"The MSc has enabled me to develop my leadership capabilities within my organisation. Furthermore the networking opportunity available at GSM has been extremely useful and has given me the opportunity to meet health practitioners from a range of public and private sector organisations"



Mary Clark CBE
Director of Nursing, Quality and Service Improvement, City and Hackney Teaching Primary Care Trust

"The EMBA programme in Health Services Management, as well as being very interesting, also met my needs entirely. The Executive format was extremely convenient, and the course structure was excellent. I received good support from the tutors and administration staff. They were all very accommodating and helpful in every aspect."



John Gallagher
Headmaster, Colfe's Preparatory School

"One of the most valuable lessons on the Executive MBA at GSM was how to manage my time; balancing the demands of work, family and study whilst retaining my sanity. The programme content was very relevant to my work and, whilst the deadlines were challenging, I experienced a considerable sense of satisfaction on completing each element of the programme."

"Since completing my Executive MBA I have secured my first headship and I am certain that the qualification through GSM played a key role in my promotion."



Imran Devji
Assistant Director (Diagnostics & Capacity), Newham University Hospital NHS Trust

"The Executive MBA in Health Service Management is an excellent programme which perfectly fitted into my busy work/life balance. The theoretical models covered in the programme were directly applicable in a health management setting."



Kevin Power
Head of Operational Services, Wandsworth Council

"The Executive MBA at Greenwich School of Management was challenging, rewarding and enjoyable. The interaction with my fellow students, exchanging real life business experiences, was a great benefit. The programme allowed me to apply what I had learnt to my everyday job, on such topics as formatting business strategy, eradicating waste and positively marketing the organisation."

"Since completing the MBA I have gained a substantial promotion at work. The MBA was certainly an influencing factor in this."



HRH Prince Y F Bala-Tonglélé PhD
Group Executive Chairman
Golden Shield 7 Group of Companies

"I joined Greenwich School of Management as a young undergraduate with A levels in September 1982 and came out with a PhD (Distinction) in December 1989. Now I direct seven international companies employing over 900 staff across Europe, Asia and Africa.

Without the education, training and discipline received at Greenwich School of Management, I could not have achieved this success in my lifetime. Greenwich School of Management was the natural choice for me and I have recommended many of my colleagues to join GSM and they have all graduated at this School successfully. GSM is the natural choice for business education



Steve Donegan
MD - Graphic Republik

"The Executive MBA programme gave me the confidence to prove myself both professionally and academically. Coming from a technical background I realised that a management degree would both raise my profile and at the same time give me the skills to take my career forward."



Neil Thody
Cameron Consulting

"The Executive MBA, with its convenient weekend modules and executive format, fitted neatly around my family and work commitments. The content of the programme allowed me to align academic theory with practice to benefit both myself and the business. The work based assignments were particularly useful. There was real purpose to the learning and development style."

"On completion of the course, I had gained not only the academic theory but the confidence to set up my own consultancy business, Cameron Consulting. The staff and support provided by GSM was excellent with good resources and a flexible approach, making the learning enjoyable and purposeful."



Rebecca Cooper
Lead Nurse - The Priscilla Bacon Centre for Specialist Palliative Care Services, Norfolk Primary Care Trust

"Studying at GSM has been a positive experience. The tuition is of a high standard and is tailored to support the individual course member's needs. Module tutors offer excellent support and accessibility in relation to completing assignments. Throughout the dissertation process my supervisor was quick to respond to queries. Both academically and administratively, tutors, lecturers and staff offer support and encouragement throughout the programme.

"I would recommend the GSM Health Services Management MBA programme to any health professional who is considering a career in management. It will enable you to understand the theory and relate it to practice in your own workplace. You will grow in confidence and make an impact in a changing NHS and health services environment."



Nicci Rayes
Divisional Head of 6th Form, Colfe's School

"The structure of the Executive MBA allowed me to combine a busy working life with the opportunity of obtaining a highly relevant management qualification. The course content is immediately applicable to one's organisation. The MBA raised my profile at work and opened up significant career opportunities."



Ruhi Siddiqui
Head of the Standards Unit, The Public Health Agency

"I am certainly more confident and outward-facing in my attitude, and I now have a broader view of organisational structure. The pattern of private study and weekend attendance needs discipline, but it does not intrude on my working time. It's good value in terms of fees. All in all it's an excellent package"

David Grant
IT Consultant and Gospel Singer

"It's a big wide world out there and it is important not to get pigeon-holed. This qualification opens doors across all borders, and I am now perceived as being able to take on a task, do the necessary research and complete the mission in a disciplined manner. I should also say that I found the atmosphere at the school to be excellent, with high quality lecturers who are pleasantly accessible compared to most Schools"

Clive Sutton
Out-Patient Therapies Manager
St Georges' Hospital, South London

"The nature of the course makes you aware of your strengths and weaknesses, and enables you to focus on better problem solving and time planning. The aspect of studying the various relevant modules which can be applied to my role - and discussed with appropriate colleagues - is especially beneficial. And we talk in real "non corporate language" which makes for continual good communication with patients. My increased knowledge already enables me to connect to a wider audience sphere, and the overall enhanced training will enable me to contribute much more toward the stimulating and supportive atmosphere at St Georges'."

Rob Grafton
Planning & Environment Manager
London City Airport

"I'm absolutely loving the challenge. The format of the programme suits me fine, and I am learning facets of the business which I didn't know and can now understand. I can appreciate matters on a larger scale through the strategic management module for example, and the finance input has clarified the language of numbers as it were. The practical situation of being able to discuss the course with relevant colleagues is very advantageous, as are networking opportunities with fellow students. The standard of lecturing at the School is very high, and coupled with the stimulating atmosphere I am learning a lot about myself. The overall feeling is of greater achievement and more confidence. In typical, tangible terms for example, I worked with the Community Relations Team at the airport to develop the role of 'Community Ambassadors' , whereby we offer training and developement opportunities and an annual bursary to staff that have demonstrated a will to progress within the company. In exchange we benefit from their knowledge and time as local residents', for example as school governors, or attending commuity meetings on behalf of the airport, and with crisis management also an important part of my brief. You can certainly say that an MBA is a passport to wider horizons"

Rob's success has recently caught the attention of the London Evening Standard and the leading facilities media FMJ and Premises & Facilities Management.




Jun Hou, who is from China is a prime example of the type of student that Greenwich School of Management attracts. She was eager to get her degree in as short a time as possible. When she arrived in this country her aim was to get a Bachelor degree and a Master degree within three years in order to save money in living expenses and fees. GSM was the natural choice for her Bachelor degree.

"The Greenwich School of Management 2 year BSc (Hons) degree offers fantastic value for money. I saved a lot in terms of time and money. Greenwich School of Management has excellent partnership arrangements with leading universities. This means that the quality of the degree is as good, if not much better than many institutions. It was a perfect stepping stone to my Master's degree."

She is now on an MSc programme at London School of Economics, and is planning to return to China to take up a management post after completing her MSc.




"The programme gave me confidence and helped me get a job as a Tour Manager, travelling around the world. Studying was fun, the programme was interesting and the teachers very friendly.Also, it was good value for money. I feel now that I will always be able to get a job in tourism."
Jana Martinikova






"The programme provided me with a solid foundation for my business career, and studying so close to the City of London helped me to make contacts in a wide range of companies.

The trip to USA was a once-in-a-lifetime experience."

Ana Brnabic (Yugoslavia)






Stephen Williams left Greenwich with the confidence and knowlege to enable him to start his own business - he now run a successfull letting agency.

"The two-year degree idea is great. I was out to work, earning a living a whole year ahead of my mates; it gave me a real head start and now I'm running my own successful business using the skills that I developed at Greenwich School of Management."

Stephen Williams BSc(Hons) runs his own Lettings Agency




"The teaching was both fun and professional, and the staff were always approachable and helpful. Everything was explained clearly and succinctly, and my programme tutor was a mentor in every sense.

I achieved a Distinction, and I was delighted to gain the role at ISIS which is a leading operator in the schools and student travel market. I greatly enjoy the varied and challenging nature of the job, plus the financial rewards and career progression.

My colleagues are encouraging and stimulating, and I do feel that the skills I learnt from my programme are finally being put into practice and I benefited significantly from my time at Greenwich School of Management."
Shivani Batavia
