Bachelor of Business Management Program Offered at Kenya Highlands University

The world of business is a very significant part of our society. Financial issues touch every aspect of our economic, governing, educational, social and church structures. Unfortunately, today corruption and incompetence have their greatest influence in the realm of economics and business, making an impact on every individual, family, and institution in the country. The usual skills of business management are alone inadequate to address this issue because the source of this problem is within the heart not the head.
