James Chen has dedicated nearly two decades to making vision care accessible and affordable. Tackling this issue hasn’t been easy, but drove home for him the importance of an entrepreneur’s mindset and domain expertise to help philanthropists like himself both reveal and back the game-changing ideas that will have the biggest impact. He talked to Meet the Leader about resilience, collaboration, founding the education campaign Clearly, and the critical pivot that unlocked key progress after years of work (leading to the first-ever UN resolution on vision last July). He also delivered an important message about ‘moonshot philanthropy’ - and the special magic that can come when philanthropists take on risk.

In this episode, Gore shares why he’s optimistic for change, how he’s evolved as a leader and communicator, the strategy he can’t work without and the advice he’d give to a younger self.

Borg is the first-ever female CEO for this European energy company - a firm committed to fossil-free living in a generation. Phasing out fossil fuels will reshape industry and lead to historic milestones and unique collaborations (such as the joint-project that developed the world’s first fossil-free steel last year). Not moving fast enough, however, can lead to ‘devastating’ risks for business and the planet. She explains what’s needed to scale new technologies. She also shares the frameworks and questions she and her team use to weigh big decisions and to drive transformation while staying competitive.
