An explosive internal investigation has uncovered shocking allegations against the 87-year-old founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF), painting a damning picture of workplace misconduct.
Bullying and Financial Excess
The report details systematic bullying of staff members, with employees describing a toxic work environment under the veteran economist's leadership. Sources claim junior staff were frequently reduced to tears by his harsh treatment.
Questionable Expenses
Investigators reportedly uncovered extravagant travel expenditures, including:
- First-class flights for short-haul journeys
- Five-star hotel stays exceeding corporate policy
- Exorbitant meal expenses during business trips
Inappropriate Conduct
Most disturbingly, the probe found evidence of suggestive remarks made to a senior female executive. While not constituting legal harassment, these comments allegedly created an uncomfortable professional atmosphere.
Fallout and Response
The WEF has declined to comment on potential disciplinary actions, stating only that they take all staff welfare matters seriously. The revelations come at a sensitive time for the organisation as it prepares for its annual Davos summit.
Legal experts suggest the findings could have significant reputational consequences for both the individual and the institution he founded nearly five decades ago.
