He will become a member of The School of Reputation and Relationships, and will teach in their MBA and MSc. programs Baskın says “Henley appears to be the perfect place for me as a rookie academician as the school equally emphasizes all three aspects of academia and encourages their members to link together their research, teaching, and consultancy for synergy. Therefore, I will be able to relate theory and practice on a daily basis and actually see my research make an impact. The School of Reputation and Relationships, where I will be joining as a member, is a very dynamic place nowadays as they are in the process of developing a new MSc. in Marketing and I will be able to provide an input for this program as well. The School works with many of the leading organizations in the world and a big portion of the students are executive managers in these organizations, which necessitate the members of the faculty to be on top of their game, and I will do just that.”
