Godman Akinlabi Bags Centre for Values in Leadership Award.

Godman Akinlabi, Global Lead Pastor of The Elevation Church, has been honoured as a Distinguished Honouree of the 71st Leader Without Title (LWT) Leadership Tribute Colloquium, organised by the Centre for Values in Leadership (CVL). The recognition was conferred at a recent colloquium held in Lagos.
The Leader Without Title Leadership Tribute is one of CVL’s most prestigious platforms, recognising individuals whose leadership impact transcends formal authority and delivers measurable social value through service, integrity, and purpose. Akinlabi was selected following a rigorous, merit-based evaluation process focused on long-term societal contribution and values-driven leadership.
Speaking on the honour, Akinlabi said, “This recognition is a reminder that leadership is ultimately about service and the responsibility to create value beyond oneself. I receive this honour on behalf of the many people and communities whose lives continue to give meaning to the work we do. True leadership is measured not by titles, but by impact, integrity, and the legacy we leave behind.”
Aknilabi was recognised for his sustained impact in human development, mentorship, and community transformation through The Elevation Church and its associated social initiatives. Programmes such as the Pistis Empowerment Foundation, large-scale outreach efforts including Elevate 200, free medical missions, food distribution drives, and multiple welfare interventions were cited as evidence of enduring social impact. His leadership platforms, including The Exponential Conference, Vantage Forum, Man Up, The Hangout, and the Business Roundtable, were also highlighted for their role in equipping leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and young people across sectors.
According to Professor Pat Utomi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Centre for Values in Leadership, the recognition reflects the focus of this year’s edition of the programme. “This year’s edition focuses on honouring faith leaders of outstanding global relevance, individuals whose lives reflect a long-standing commitment to justice, equity, and transformative social impact. Godman Akinlabi’s work embodies these ideals and has produced tangible results across communities within and beyond Nigeria,” Utomi stated.
In addition to his institutional and social contributions, Akinlabi’s influence extends through his authorship and thought leadership. His books, including I Am Possible, From Fear to Faith, Don’t Waste Your Pain, Grace at Work, Radical Purity, and Divine Advantage, have reached a global audience, offering practical guidance on leadership, resilience, work, relationships, and personal development. His active engagement across digital platforms further reflects a contemporary approach to leadership and community building.
The Centre for Values in Leadership noted that the honour places Akinlabi among a distinguished group of African leaders previously recognised by the programme, including Akintola Williams, Ernest Shonekan, Emeka Anyaoku, Grace Alele Williams, Christopher Kolade, and Wole Olanipekun.
The recognition reinforces the continuing role of values-based leadership in national development and social progress, particularly in shaping ethical, inclusive, and resilient institutions across Africa.
