Ahmed Mahomed appointed to Datacentrix Holdings board
PRETORIA - March 01, 2003 - Ahmed Mahomed, managing director of Datacentrix
Infrastructure Optimisation (Pty) Ltd, has been appointed as an executive
director to the Datacentrix Holdings Limited board.
Mahomed joined Datacentrix in January 2002 to head up the organisation`s
infrastructure division. Prior to this, he was managing director of Pinnacle
Micro and previously held a position at hardware and construction giant,
Cashbuild, as operations manager, where, in addition to his strategic management
responsibilities, he played a pivotal role in the computerisation of the
company.
According to Gary Morolo, executive chairman at Datacentrix, Mahomed`s
appointment forms an integral part of the company`s black empowerment drive.
"Datacentrix believes that employment equity is a planned, positive business
strategy and facilitates the transformation of the company`s profile and
culture. Ahmed`s appointment to our board of directors also highlights the
importance of empowerment at all levels of the organisation.
"Ahmed`s strong operational management skills, his focus on financial
disciplines and the respect he has built in the local IT industry over the years
were all important factors in our decision," Morolo adds.
Datacentrix cites itself as an equal opportunity company and maintains that, in
line with this, fifty-five percent of Datacentrix Holdings board of directors
comprises previously disadvantaged individuals.
