The One Question To Ask Each Exec For 2027 Successes 

To ensure organisational success in 2027, leaders must ask their executive colleagues targeted questions. Here is the list to ask each leadership peer:

CEO: What's the one thing we have to win in 2027, and what are we saying no to?

CFO: Which bets have a clear return, and what would make you pull the budget/funding?

COO: What's the one bottleneck most likely to stop us from hitting our 2027 numbers?

CPO: If you could back only one product bet in 2027, what would it be? How would you prove it worked for customers and the business? And what would you stop doing to protect it?

CTO/CIO/CISO: Where are we most vulnerable for AI and hacking? 

CHRO: What leadership or people capability do we need by mid-2027, and who owns building it?

CMO: Where are you focusing your team’s efforts to drive success in 2027 and what are you deprioritising to ensure you have enough resources to hit our goals?
