Bode Aboderin

Bodé Aboderin is a UK-based business leader, keynote speaker, and author of Fatherhood by Papa B (DK / Penguin Random House, 2022) — a landmark guide that reframed mainstream conversations around Black fatherhood, ambition, and modern masculinity in Britain.

Originally from Nigeria, Bodé spent over a decade as a senior Account Director in the construction sector, managing Tier 1 contractor portfolios, before stepping into the public eye. That commercial grounding sits behind his work today, which spans publishing, talent management, brand strategy, and the speaking circuit.

He is co-founder of Undeniable Productions, the company behind the podcast Conversations with Candice, and serves as creative strategist and manager to two-time Sunday Times bestselling author Candice Brathwaite. Together they run a growing UK media business while raising a family of three.

As a keynote speaker, Bodé is sought after internationally on fatherhood, masculinity, reinvention, and the intersection of leadership and identity. He has held the platform as the only male speaker at Pregnant Then Screwed and has appeared across major UK media. His style is candid, warm, and grounded in lived experience a man who has navigated the corporate world, fatherhood, and a full career rebuild in real time.
