Former WPP Plc Chief Executive Officer Martin Sorrell said his style of management was sometimes “difficult,” but that he had done no wrong, in his first public comments addressing the allegations against him since leaving the company in April.
Sorrell, who in three decades turned a wire shopping basket maker into the world’s largest advertising company, resigned from WPP following a company probe into allegations of personal misconduct and misuse of company funds.
