Klein saw the school through significant enrolment growth and developed courses and partnerships that gave it a global reputation
Saul Klein, who shepherded the University of Victoria’s Peter B. Gustavson School of Business through significant enrolment growth and developed courses and partnerships that gave it a global reputation, has retired after 11 years at the helm.
Since becoming dean in 2012, Klein has championed the school’s commitment to responsible-management education, a core value for which the school gained international recognition. Preparing students to be innovators, entrepreneurs and responsible business leaders at an international level was Klein’s mission at UVic, where he built Gustavson into one of Canada’s best business schools and saw enrolment increase by 30%.
“This is an incredibly valuable experience for students and shapes their future perspectives as business leaders,” Klein said. “And it’s about much more than just business, trade and economics. It builds the kind of understanding and respect across cultures that challenges the sort of xenophobia and hyper-nationalism we’re seeing around the world.”
Klein helped launch the Victoria Forum in 2017, bringing together participants from government, academia, business and civil society to develop solutions to the world’s most pressing problems.
