Most people hope to inherit wealth. At 27, Dr. Silver Kung inherited $10 million in family debt instead.

That unexpected burden became the catalyst for an extraordinary journey. Today, he leads a $3.3 billion investment firm and has captured his hard-won wisdom in a new book, Silver Linings. In it, he shares the core principles that guided his turnaround, from the rigor of his early aerospace engineering background to pioneering impact investing in global supply chains.

In this week's Power & Impact, we dive deep into the mindset required to turn a daunting crisis into an opportunity. We discuss why he embraced AI agents long before they became mainstream, his unique perspective on funding the future of clean energy through nuclear fusion, and why he views finance as a language everyone should learn.

Beyond the balance sheets, Dr. Kung opens up about the personal rituals that ground him and why lifelong learninsg remain life's greatest investments of all.

Every business conversation this year seems to circle back to artificial intelligence. This week's episode of Power & Impact circles back to something older: leadership.

Former Xerox CEO Steve Bandrowczak has spent his career helping organizations navigate massive change. In our conversation, he makes the case that the companies who get AI right will be led by people who know how to help others adapt, learn, and take on new ways of working — not necessarily the ones with the sharpest technology.

Steve also shares the experiences that shaped him decades before he became a CEO: leaving home at 16 with little more than a paper bag, earning a master's degree alongside his daughter years later. He's built a career out of proving that showing up and staying curious outlasts any title.

This conversation offers a fresh perspective on the mindset required to guide teams through major technological transitions. Share your thoughts at podcasts@celebration.com.
