The global advertising agency's chief executive officer John Seifert told employees in a memo that this followed an internal investigation into complaints over Mr Tham's behaviour. According to trade publication Adweek, the memo said that the complaints surfaced two weeks ago and were serious enough that an external legal counsel was appointed to investigate the matter. "After carefully reviewing the investigation's findings with several of my partners, we concluded that Khai's behaviour was a clear breach of our company values and code of conduct," Mr Seifert wrote. "I have decided to terminate Khai's employment with the company with immediate effect." Mr Tham, who is in his 60s and married, joined the ad giant in 1999. He was also co-chairman of Ogilvy's board.
