World Vision Australia CEO Daniel Wordsworth brought his own charity to the Fair Work Commission, after the organization had told the staff that it had ended his term of office and in the midst of broader claims of a toxic workplace on the charity.
Mr. Wordsworth was confirmed as the subject of plague complaints that the world vision investigated independently but was not substantiated.
One complaint remains in investigation.
A source within World Vision told the ABC that employees from the past and the current present had been given the opportunity to contribute to the external research into bullying accusations “that found nothing further” to investigate.

Despite that finding, the chairman of the Council Peter Trent, however, confirmed this evening to the staff that Mr. Wordsworth would leave the organization he had led since March 2021.
“CEO Daniel Wordworth will end his term of office at World Vision Australia. The board has decided not to extend its contract and look for new leadership for the organization,” said the E -mail.
“The Heer Wordsworth sent the organization via the COVID-19 Pandemie and the reaction to humanitarian crises and conflicts such as the constant war in Ukraine.
“The board will soon start the search for the replacement of Daniel.”

Insiders describe charity in turmoil
Insiders have described the ABC a charity in turmoil with several former employees who say that the organization is plagued by bullying complaints and personnel outputs.
Employees said they strongly believed in charity and his work, but became disillusioned by culture.
Mike Bruce, who worked as a media manager from November 2019 to July 2022, told the ABC that he resigned after he had lost confidence in the leadership of the organization.
“I reluctantly left WV about what I felt like a culture of toxic and autocratic management that was at odds with a faith -based charity such as World Vision.”
‘I saw colleagues bullied’
Another former employee, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that the environment was unsafe.
“I saw colleagues bullied out of the building and then it happened to me. Managers could not protect their staff or not.”

In a now deleted Tiktok video, Mr. Wordsworth thought about his own leadership approach.
“I used to have an open door policy for five or six years. But after a while I realized that the only people who came in were whining and complained. The really good people, those who did the work were there, not in my office.
“I had to look for them and get their input. If you just sit in your office and wait, you only hear from a certain type of person. The real competent, the real experience, working at work. You have to ask them. You want to listen, but only to people whose ideas are better than chance.”
