Dr. Martin Oduor Otieno urges graduates to embrace agility as he takes office

Education
 KCA University Chancellor Dr. Martin Oduor Otieno.

Students have been urged to embrace agility in their careers to stay competitive in a rapidly changing job market.

The call came as KCA University appointed Dr. Martin Oduor Otieno as its new Chancellor on Friday, December 1.

Dr. Oduor Otieno succeeds Prof. Olive Mugenda, who retired after five years in the role.

The appointment coincided with the university’s second graduation ceremony of the year, marking the introduction of a bi-annual graduation schedule designed to reduce completion times and speed up students' transition into the workforce.

In his address, Dr Oduor Otieno advised graduates to be flexible and adaptable.

“You need the agility to pivot, explore unconventional roles, and embrace opportunities that align with your evolving passions and goals,” he said.

 The ceremony also recognised 30 staff members and 10 students for their contributions to grant writing and innovation aimed at solving global challenges.

 Prof. Isaiah Wakindiki, Vice Chancellor of the university, stressed the importance of strong leadership and governance in higher education.

 “Effective governance establishes accountability, transparency, and strategic oversight,” he noted.
