— The Wall Street Journal (@WSJ) June 29, 2021
This afternoon.
‘On May 2nd I made an inadvertent, public and embarrassing mistake for which I took full responsibility and apologized to those directly affected, as well as my colleagues and clients. A campaign against the reputation of our firm has followed and may even continue in the coming days. However, regardless of the veracity of any such matters I do not want them to be an ongoing distraction to the running of our company.
In order to protect the employees of Teneo and its clients, and with my family’s strong support, I have decided to leave the company and resign as Chairman and CEO.
Teneo will remain the best in the world at what it does, a firm whose success has been driven by three virtues – hard work, decency and compassion.
Over recent days I have received countless messages of support from my colleagues, clients, public figures and people who know me well both personally and professionally. Their support and trust is what counts the most. I will be forever grateful to them all.
I want to thank our hundreds of clients around the world for their support of our business and their loyalty to our people. You are the reason Teneo exists. And to my 1,250 colleagues worldwide, I will continue to be your biggest supporter.’
Declan Kelly this afternoon.
A Statement By Declan Kelly (Teneo)
Previously: On A Global Stage




When I read corporate brand tenets / values I just can’t help but eye roll.
Fair play in fairness
What exactly did he do? Shout? Fight? I’m just curious now…..
Inappropriate/unwanted touching of females while pished drunk.
Or sexual assault in non PR terms.
Yep. Alcohol isn’t an excuse.
nearly fell off my chair, for once you and I agree…
Big Irish Head on him
Brother of the great Alan Kelly of Labour
Powers is a drug.
Is this lad the same brother who had Irish Water involvement.?
Yep
Powers is a whiskey
* insert That’s The Joke meme *
*Pikachu shocked face meme*
“Is this lad the same brother who had Irish Water involvement.?”
Yep, the very one.
Did you know that Teneo’s first client in 2011 was the Rockerfeller Foundation, a $3.5 million six month contract (renewed ever since). Hon Tipp!
Good times, Bodger! Good times!
Watch as Tipp GAA don’t end their lucrative sponsorship deal. You should do a special on all the awful companies and individuals who sponsor GAA teams around the country, Navillus, Vodafone, KN Networks, Kingspan- all basically money laundering and whitewashing filthy assets and reputations
do you really believe Tipp gets make that decision-haha
they will burn to the ground anything and everything,yeah a scorched earth policy with kelly’s favs,they have over 350,000,000 riding on these donkeys.

The pong of schadenfreude in here!

“A campaign against the reputation of our firm has followed and may even continue in the coming days. However, regardless of the veracity”

lol
that statement earlier is such template corporate waffle…great headline Bodger, you’re on form
apart from the general powertrip who’s squeeze did he allegedly assault on the night Johnny?
thats about it GB.
-Page Six reported last week that Kelly was extremely drunk and acted inappropriately with as many as six women at the party in front of other guests, according to one source. The Financial Times reported “the inappropriate behavior included the non-consensual touching of a number of women.-
our Terry on it,she has a point,maybe some litigation is pending/charges ?
“It took quite a while, in media terms, for this story to break. Time is a great asset in this kind of situation. An interval provides the person at the centre of the episode the chance to sober up, get over the hangover, assess the scale of the damage and work out the reparative actions required.”

I don’t think this is about his behaviour but more to do with Doug Band’s departure from Teneo and the firm’s involvement with the Clinton Foundation/Clinton Global Initiative. Murky.
i’m trying avoid being tiresome for some your more devoted followers bodger,but yes that xmas departure and vf article have been linked epstein/clintons,a new series on cable here has renewed interest.

Time to accept you’re just not relevant in the old country any more, fella, cry into your beer there in a dive bar in Sunnyside, only waking from your somnolent redundancy
When someone puts a quarter on the jukebox and the Wolfe Tones come on
God save Ireland
Admins, please take note of this bullying. Take sketches too, possibly in a nice pastel chalk, I’m thinking?
Sure Declan you dident kill anyone.We have all done stupid things and many more to come ,your sorry so hold your head high and get on with helping your workers .
Oh look, a hydra!
Big lad in Internet forum tries to impress the girls with his woke ethic- didn’t someone call you out on this already, today, pet?
I thought david was the human Whooosh, but the crown has been handed on to tumbleweed himself, canada/un/hyper real.
Take a bow, admins, please take note.
Mary loves a good grope at a drinks reception. Makes her feel young again.
Shure the girls were probably only delighted to be allegedly touched up by such an important fella
My thoughts exactly! Don’t they know his brother is a big name back in the old country?
