Congratulations, WBS, on your 50th year celebrations! In 1992, events exposed our class to very exciting political events. We had two superb politics teachers. Prof Schlemmer and Prof van Zyl Slabbert!
What truly set me on my path of enlightenment began at registration. I saw a self-identification box to check “Coloured” when I completed my registration form for my I.D. and I was dumbfounded. I studied abroad [at WBS] from Jan-March 2013 via Kelley School of Business, Indiana University as part of the Partnership in International Management (PIM) network….
One of my best moments was doing a syndicate assignment video presentation for the Organisational Design and Development module, under the topic “Design of an Agile Organisation”, which became a journey of discovery and enlightenment for the team, as well as lots of fun whilst contributing to immense learning.
Someday, I will make my parents proud. I promise. Thank you, Lord.
Truly the most challenging and amazing 2 years which provided the foundation for my career. Many in our class excelled in business, all excelled as leaders of all kinds. I am honoured to be a Wits Business School alumni.
I think back very fondly to those couple of years. And it is very gratifying to see that the school has developed so impressively in the years since then.
