Welcome to the Graduate School of Business Leadership. The arrival of the knowledge economy and the convergence of information and communication technologies have changed our global socio-political and economic landscape.


For starters, it has created a borderless world where what happens in Azerbaijan is instant news in Zanzibar. The consumer is now more informed than ever, thanks to mobile telephony, the Internet and other aspects of advance communication technologies. In a nutshell, we live today in a hypercompetitive networked world, a global village.

The new global village needs a new kind of leadership and business managers who are equipped with the requisite skills sets and capabilities to lead our private and public sector organisations. The Graduate School of Business Leadership is positioned to equip business managers and leaders with the requisite skills and knowledge to thrive and succeed abundantly in today’s demanding but complex business environment. Our track record which spans more than four decades of producing some of the top business leaders and policy makers in South Africa and on the African continent is a testimony to our capabilities.

Our award winning programmes offer the academic rigour and excellence that discerning students demand. These programmes combine the theoretical foundations of business and leadership to the practical demands of a hypercompetitive business environment. This allows us to fit our students with the requisite lenses to see through the fog in business transactions in the real world as well as to lead in uncertain times. As a premier Open Distant Learning (ODL) institution, we are able to help the busy executive of today earn Graduate Degrees and professional laurels through our executive education programmes.

As a knowledge-kernel, our numerous forums on leadership and business challenges are an oasis of knowledge generation, knowledge exchange and an environment for the cross-fertilisation of ideas. Our renowned academic staff which includes leaders in the public and private sectors of South Africa challenge our students to rethink some of the fleeting orthodoxies and mindsets some of them cling to. They engage them to solve real-life problems in our group work format at the business school. The programmes and the courses of the school are cutting-edge and market driven. Is it therefore any wonder that the school has produced so many corporate leaders and policy makers in South Africa and in Africa? That is why we want you to be part of this success story.

We at the Graduate School of Business Leadership are therefore inviting you to be part of our history, our story and success. But that journey begins with an effort on your part. As Lao Tzu (570-490 B.C.) an ancient Chinese sage once said, “the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” Come journey with us in this exciting knowledge era. Our simple pledge is to meet the lifelong learning needs of you and your organisation. This requires your taking the first step by calling our Client Information Centre at +27 11 652 0000 today. We look forward to hearing from you and that you will become part of our success story.
