So, how does a lad from a Yorkshire mining town, who left school at 16, become global CEO of one of the world’s greatest companies?
His story is one of hard work, absolute clarity, moments of inspiration, emotional connection and the dedication to keep going when times are at their toughest. His reputation is built on a unique collection of attributes: an unswerving belief in the wisdom of the frontline, an ability to connect with people across age, geography or cultural borders, a laser-like focus on the key fundamentals of business, a generous measure of good old-fashioned common sense, and an uncompromising commitment to people, product and process that will unleash the economic potential of any organisation. Ken is the business leader who sees the clearest path with an uncanny ability to slice through the static to the heart of any business issue.

Quite simply, Ken Allen cuts through like no other CEO.
