Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang knows he's a tough boss and has no regrets about it. In a recent interview with "60 Minutes," employees at the company's Santa Clara headquarters told correspondent Bill Whitaker that the entrepreneur is "demanding," a "perfectionist," and "not easy to work for." Huang, who co-founded the chipmaker in 1993 which is now worth over $2 trillion, said this described him "perfectly." "He is to some degree cutthroat," Wladislaw Rivkin, associate professor of organizational behavior at Trinity Business School, told CNBC Make It. Many smaller companies have gone bankrupt but Nvidia "survived," Rivkin noted.

"There was no clear answer to whether work from home was better or worse for the environment in general terms."

Panel speakers said philanthropy is often overlooked when thinking about the climate finance gap and that it could act as vital leverage. Michael Wilkins, ​​executive director and professor of practice at the Centre for Climate Finance & Investment at Imperial College Business School, welcomed the comments made by panelists at Davos. "Philanthropy has been crucial in research and development for climate finance and its development," Wilkins told Insider. "The private sector has to join the public sector," Gore said. The solution is not just about scaling up climate investment, though, according to Gore.
