Tham-Khai-Meng-630cover

来自《广告周刊》的报道,奥美集团(Ogilvy)今天正式解雇其已经担任将近10年全球首席创意官的谭启明(Tham Khai Meng)

在全员备忘录中,奥美全球CEO John Seifert 提及到基于谭启明行为的控诉在两周前引起了他的关注。John Seifert 并没有特别指明这些控诉都包含什么具体内容,但声称他“觉得这些控诉已经足够严重到委任外部的法律顾问来对相关事情进行调查。”

通过随后的调查,发现谭启明的行为已经明显违反了奥美的价值观和行为准则,所以奥美决定即刻解雇他。

1999年,谭启明正式加入奥美,而后成为公司最耀眼的创意明星之一,先是被提拔为亚太区首席创意官,而后在2009年转调纽约,并高升奥美集团全球首席创意官和联席董事长。


以下是John Seifert发给员工信全文(中文为创意邦翻译,时间仓促如有瑕疵请见谅):

Two weeks ago, I was informed of employee complaints regarding the behavior of Tham Khai Meng, Chief Creative Officer of The Ogilvy Group.
两周前,我收到了来自员工们对奥美集团首席创意官谭启明个人行为的投诉。

I found these complaints serious enough to appoint external legal counsel to investigate the matter.
我认为这些投诉是足够严重到需要指定外部法律顾问来调查此事。

After carefully reviewing the investigation’s findings with several of my partners, we concluded that Khai’s behavior was a clear breach of our company values and code of conduct. I have decided to terminate Khai’s employment with the company with immediate effect.
我和几位公司合伙人在仔细查看调查报告的一些证据后,得出的结论是谭启明的行为已经明显违反了我们公司的价值观和行为准则。我决定即刻解除谭启明的职务。

Each year, we ask every employee in the company to read, authorize, and fully commit to a code of conduct that each of us is responsible for living up to. Over the past 70 years, we have institutionalized shared values and a standard of professional behavior unique to the Ogilvy brand.
每年,我们都要求公司的每位员工仔细阅读、授权、完全遵守那些我们有义务遵循的行为准则。在过去的70年间,我们将共同的价值观和专业行为标准化,打造独具特色的奥美品牌。

This is an important moment to reaffirm that no individual in this company is too senior or too important not to be held accountable for their actions.
在这样一个重要时刻,我们重申任何一个员工,无论职位再高再重要,都必须对自己的行为负责。

Thank you for your support.
感谢大家的支持。
