New York/London | Declan Kelly, an influential adviser to many Fortune 500 chief executives, has resigned as head of the communication company Teneo, days after allegations of drunken misconduct at a charity concert.
Mr Kellyâs departure marks a swift fall for an Irish-born executive who built a public relations empire by convincing corporate leaders that Teneo, which he styled as âthe worldâs pre-eminent CEO advisory firmâ, could save them from reputational crises.
Teneo chairman and CEO Declan Kelly allegedly misbehaved at a charity gala hosted by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.Â
