With an infectious enthusiasm for business excellence, Karen Leftley brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the role of President of the British Quality Foundation.

Under her leadership, every aspect of the much-valued membership organisation has been revamped, including a complete reimagining of the annual BQF UK Excellence Awards, with this year’s sold out event taking place on 5th October.

“There’ll be a showcase for every winning team to talk through what they’ve done so that everybody can learn.  And that’s what it’s all about.  It’s about sharing learning and sharing the things that don’t work as much as the things that do.” 
– Karen Leftley, BQF President on the BQF UK Excellence Awards
