About: We are reaching the denouement of Mr Mahomed’s illustrious career within Education Department, and it is necessary for us to gain as much wisdom as we can from him. This is our opportunity to learn, to converse, to connect, and to be inspired by the culminating career with his eclectic influences and the impact he has had in his life, in leadership, in education, in service. The intent for this session is to learn from the reflections, guidance and for Mr. Mahomed to share the great many lessons he has learnt over his years in education. This session focuses on shifting our mindsets around our deeper and philosophical action within the realms of service in education. In this session we will hear the heartfelt wisdom, and hear his story so that it may leave us in resonance of expanding our own potential.
