    Guest: Tony Shan [Stanford’s Graduate School of Business, Father, Ex-VP of Finance]

    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tonyshan05/

    Today, I’m thrilled to welcome Tony Shan, the former VP of Finance at Urban Electronic Co. and previously a Principal at @CPE, CITIC Private Equity. But today, we’re diving into a role far more significant than his corporate titles: the role of a father. In this episode, we’ll begin with Tony’s journey from China to Stanford’s Graduate School of Business and discuss how that experience led him to a deeper understanding of himself. We’ll then explore the reflections and inner growth he’s experienced while raising his children, and how his relationship with them has reshaped his relationship with himself. Finally, we’ll discuss the importance of individuality in a world rapidly advancing toward artificial general intelligence (AGI). If you enjoy today’s episode, be sure to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen, and leave us a review! We love hearing from you, and we read every comment.
