We are delighted to finish 2021 in style after bringing home the BFA HSBC award for Leadership & Culture. The prize was contended by a host of worthy entries, but our networks’ incredible efforts throughout 2021 ultimately secured the prize at this year’s ceremony.
The BFA commemorates a wide variety of franchisors with multiple award categories. The award for Leadership and Culture celebrates those businesses that have striven to ensure that their franchisees have had the highest level of support made available to them. This accolade is particularly significant given the disruption that COVID has caused franchisees over the last two years.
Our philosophy is centered around providing holistic, jargon-free business support services to small and medium-sized enterprises. The tried and tested package we have developed is tailored, unique, and bespoke to each client.
We have worked tremendously hard to support our valued franchisees this past year, as we understand that the effects of COVID on businesses have been significant. Our co-founders, Matt and Rod made it their mission to ensure that the package we provide enabled a reduction in fees and provided our network with a clear and supportive plan to navigate the pandemic.
Commenting on the win, our Franchise Development Manager Lynne Rawlinson expressed her delight at winning big at this year’s BFA awards:
“It’s fantastic to be recognised for the steps we’ve put in place to provide strong leadership and guidance while fostering a strong sense of culture. The past year came with its challenges for the whole nation but I’m incredibly proud of the whole Business Doctors team for their continued care and dedication. This award win is a testament to all their hard work.”
Co-founder Matthew Levington also spoke on Business Doctors’ recent accolade:
“We are delighted to be recognised by the industry’s leading association and franchising accreditation body, for our work and commitment to developing a values-based, ethical approach in making a genuine difference to both our franchisees and our clients’ businesses.
We have been working hard over the last 17 years to build a fantastic team and franchisee network which are driven wholeheartedly by their desire to put the customer first, park their ego at door and make everybody else the hero of the story.
Finding the right balance between humility and confidence are the two key ingredients to our success. We will continue to forge ahead as the only international franchise business, homegrown in the UK, dedicated to providing authentic, ethical hands-on support to SME’s which are the lifeblood of any economy.”
Everyone involved at Business Doctors has played their part in securing this incredible prize!
Moving forwards, we will continue to support our network to the highest level we can.
