African nominated for Business Professor of the Year Award
"If I win, my intention is to donate the prize money to critical socio-economic causes," says Saville. "Equal Education, which fights for equal and quality education for all, is one of the organisations to which I pledge US$50 000 of the prize money."
Saville has pledged the other $50 000 of the prize money to help fund the launch of a Women in Leadership Centre at the Gordon Institute of Business Science. The centre will be at the forefront of thought leadership, dialogue and action, helping develop progressive businesses and making a contribution to society.
A win for Saville would mean a win for South Africa. But even more than that, it would raise a substantial sum of money for two very worthy causes.
