As the VP of Finance and Development , Daniel managed several successful projects , further building his reputation as a trusted leader in real estate finance . But the real estate market was about to change dramatically .
A Global Leap – The Malawi Experience
In 2008 , the global financial crisis hit , sparking the collapse of major markets and a dramatic slowdown in the real estate sector . The real estate development firm where Daniel worked found its funds frozen , and many of the projects he had been overseeing came to a halt . Faced with the uncertainty of the financial crisis , Daniel decided to take a temporary break from his career in real estate
That decision would prove to be a pivotal one .
In 2009 , Daniel took on a three-month consulting role with the World Bank in Malawi , Africa , a country that , at the time , was struggling with poverty , limited infrastructure , and a lack of development . What began as a shortterm assignment soon turned into a ten-year journey that would shape the course of his career .
