Dean sets his sights high as the institute introduces new programmes for unemployed science and technology university graduates and public health-care administrators.

Randall Carolissen isn’t one for modest ambitions. He wants Johannesburg Business School , of which he is dean, to go toe-to-toe with Pretoria University’s Gordon Institute of Business Sciences in providing executive and academic business education. “I consider Gibs to be our direct competitor,” he says.

Carolissen isn’t fazed. If you don’t think big, you won’t achieve big, is his motto. Since he was appointed dean at the start of 2021, says the former SA Bureau of Standards, SA Revenue Service and National Student Fund Aid Scheme executive, JBS has made rapid progress. Major business institutions such as Standard Bank, MTN and BMW South Africa are seeking out the school’s executive education portfolio. Student demand for the MBA and other academic programmes is growing beyond expectations.

Digital transformation, and the change-management skills it requires, are at the heart of JBS education. “We dig into what it takes to be a leader in the future,” says Carolissen. “Bricks and mortar are no longer as important as technology.” With Johns Hopkins University from the US it is setting up an MBA programme for public health-care administrators. Overall demand for MBA and doctoral programmes is stretching capacity limits.JBS is part of the University of Johannesburg . Carolissen says that before signing up for his five-year tenure as dean, he had to be sure the university shared his vision. Some universities, he says, look upon their business school as an ATM to earn revenue for the university.
