Sally, Head of End User Services, Client Services, was named Business Role Model of the Year at the London event.
The judges had been looking for a female business leader in technology who has been an effective role model to other women in the last 18 months.
They examined demonstrations of leadership and business achievements, as well as examples of being a role model and inspiring other women to succeed in technology.
Sally, who joined Leeds Beckett in 2015, was described as "a northern lass with a keen interest in customer service excellence, higher education and women in tech".
The judges said her non-traditional career trajectory – Sally became pregnant at 17 and left school - showed that anyone can become an IT leader if they have passion and drive.
