The strategic meeting, themed “Driving Impact: Leadership beyond Bureaucracy,” was held at the Sheikh Khalifa Diagnostic Centre Conference Room at Seychelles Hospital.

The gathering provided a platform for senior government officials to align priorities, exchange insights on implementation challenges, and collaborate on solutions to enhance public service efficiency. This initiative underscores the administration’s commitment to strengthening governance frameworks and improving service quality for citizens.

The interactive session covered key areas, including adherence to legal protocols presented by Attorney General Vincent Perera, digital transformation in public service through IFMIS and HRMS implementation, and the enhancement of public service delivery via PMS. These discussions were facilitated by Chief Secretary Shella Mohideen and Principal Secretary Kevin Perin.
