Social Impact - Change Management, Training & Consulting

Temitope Abiagom,MSW,PMP

I'm a social work practitioner and impact leader working at the intersection of strategy, transformation, and community impact.

With over a decade of experience in impact leadership and cross- sectoral collaboration across government, community and front line systems, I specialize in supporting individuals, groups and organizations navigate change in ways that are both strategic and attentive to the lived experiences of those most affected. I have previously worked on various issues including women’s health, gender-based violence, youth employment, childcare expansion and immigrant integration.

My background includes BTech in Food Science & Engr, PGD in Education Management and a Master in Social Work from Dalhousie University

At my core, I’m guided by a simple mantra: motivated by love, driven by purpose. My principles — respect, equity, collaboration — are not just professional values, but personal commitments to how I live, work, and connect with others.

I am based in Nova Scotia, Canada.

MY JOURNEY

I am an Immigrant woman whose journey has taken her across continents and cultures. I moved to Canada in 2017, and today I call Nova Scotia home, where I live with my family.

Before life brought me here, I built my career across Nigeria and the United Kingdom—working in retail banking, fast-moving consumer goods, and education consulting. Each place, each role, and each encounter taught me something new about people, purpose, and perseverance.

Living and working in different parts of the world has given me a truly global lens, but it’s also deepened my love for community. I’ve learned that no matter where we come from, our stories connect us. That belief grounds everything I do—in openness, empathy, and a commitment to help others find their place and thrive.
