“I cannot help but mention, once again, that the cornerstone of our constitutions, governments, and peoples must be service to man. I know this sounds so simple as to warrant no serious thought, but really when you come to think about it is the all in all. Without man there is no constitution, there is no government, there is no law, there is no factory, there is no country. In fact, there is nothing that you can think of that would be meaningful. So those of us who are leaders of our people must not only think about the importance of man, it must be an obsession.” (Dr. Kenneth Kaunda, former Zambian President for 27 yrs.)
Economic Development is an important part of strengthening individuals, families, and communities at large by identifying individual’s skills and creating and retaining jobs. The development of individual skills are the engine to the established of small and large businesses. Every nation that has development started with the low-income economy to a high modern economies. This low-income economy provides a basis for local quality of life which in turn enhances the economic development at large. It is on this basis that we are convinced that the real economic development on the continent lie in the empowerment of common people and raising their value in the communities and also in the good leadership skills that are developed.
We all want that Financial freedom where we can be free to make life decisions without any overly stress about financial impact because you are prepared for it. You can control your finances rather than finances controlling you. Therefore, empowerment of individuals ushers in that freedom based on the skills developed.
It is the belief here at DDM, Inc that to achieve that financial independence we provide forums that necessitate that development by holding economic development forums and workshops that individuals who want to start businesses and those who want to grow theirs can come and learn from those that have achieved the milestones in their business endeavors.
