Why Finding Room to Grow Matters | Morningstar CEO Kunal Kapoor

Kunal Kapoor faced a choice early in his career: accept a higher-paid job in banking or join a little-known investment research firm called Morningstar.

Despite encouragement from those closest to him to take the more secure option, Kapoor trusted his instincts and chose Morningstar. Nearly three decades later, he's still there — having risen through the ranks to become CEO.

In the latest episode of Executive Decisions, Kapoor tells CNBC's Steve Sedgwick why he believes it's important to find opportunities for personal growth, how his approach to leadership has evolved and what he learned from hiring mistakes earlier in his career.

He also discusses Morningstar's expansion into private markets, the challenges of leading through technological change and why AI is forcing businesses to rethink how they operate.
