BrewDog's beleaguered CEO James Watt has apologised to anyone he made feel uncomfortable after claims over "inappropriate" behaviour emerged in a BBC documentary.
The defiant boss’s apology was detailed and unflinching - and he promised to change his ways, despite claiming the accusations against him are false.
A statement posted on the BrewDog online forum denied the main criticisms levelled by former staff on the Disclosure programme.
He said: “Yesterday I was accused of inappropriate behaviour by the BBC.
“Of all the false claims made in the programme, this was of course the most upsetting and damaging.
“Firstly, I sometimes date when I am in America and I fully accept I have taken friends, colleagues and yes, dates, on tours of the brewery. I do not consider this inappropriate.
“Secondly, and more importantly, I hugely regret anyone feeling in any way uncomfortable around me, as the programme set out.
“This is absolutely the last thing I want and something I will learn from immediately. I truly apologise to anyone who felt this way. This was never my intention.”
Watt added: “I want BrewDog to be an amazing place to work, where we celebrate each others’ success, work as a team, and sell great beer – that is the whole point, so where I am responsible for our people not being comfortable around me, then it’s clearly me that needs to change, and I will.
“I am trying to be a better leader, and to be far more mindful of the impact I have on our team when I am on site.”
BrewDog face a backlash following the broadcast of the documentary on Monday.
Mr Watt was accused by several staff members of behaving “inappropriately” in the programme, which also questioned some allegedly shady business practices.
