A highly accomplished academic, Dr. Aborisade holds a Bachelor’s, Master’s, and PhD in Psychology from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria.

Dr. Aborisade is also a Fellow of the Institute of Management Consultants (IMC) and a Fellow of the Commonwealth Academy of Leadership and Management (CALM), a UK-based body known for promoting excellence in leadership and professional development. In a virtual interview with the London Journal, Dr. Aborisade expressed gratitude to NIPES for the recognition and credited his fellowship with CALM in November 2022 as a stepping stone that helped set the pace for his NIPES consideration.
“These recognitions affirm the value of interdisciplinary work in today’s global professional landscape,” he said. “I’m deeply honoured to contribute to the integration of psychological science into broader engineering and scientific frameworks.”
Dr. Aborisade’s NIPES fellowship further positions him as a global thought leader, demonstrating the expanding relevance of psychology in diverse sectors. His recognition by these leading institutions is a testament to his dedication, influence, and vision for integrated professional practice.
