MOI Awards 2025 framed its Influencer of the Year (Business & Impact) category around one question: whose voice is changing how people work, lead and build? The answer this year was Dr. Akin Akinpelu.
MOI Awards recognised that, in a noisy world of quick quotes and “hustle” slogans, Dr. Akinpelu has chosen a more demanding path—grounded teaching, real frameworks and long-term transformation. Through his books, trainings, coaching programmes and events, he has helped professionals, entrepreneurs, faith leaders and public servants sharpen their thinking and grow their capacity.
His influence is most visible in the quiet places: teams that work better, businesses that are better structured, young leaders who suddenly have language for their dreams and a roadmap for their growth. Instead of chasing virality for its own sake, he focuses on depth, clarity and character.
By giving him Influencer of the Year (Business & Impact), MOI Awards is sending a message about what true influence should mean in business: not just clicks and followers, but measurable, positive change in people and organisations.
