Leadership Briefings

Our Question. Our Thinking. Your Answers.

Leadership has always been complex; what has changed today is the speed, the kind of innovation, and the way it is happening all at once. Uncertainty is not a temporary state to be resolved; it is the condition we lead in, and it always has been, so the question is not how to find certainty, but how to build businesses and organisations for the future without it.

Each year, we interrogate a single question across different businesses, institutions, markets and industries, exploring tailored research, critical thinking, and conversation to find new answers and new ways of thinking that connect the forces shaping leadership right now: how decisions are made, how change is understood and implemented, and how organisations grow when the ground is constantly shifting.

Through our leadership briefings, we bring that thinking to your organisation in a focused 90 minutes, working through the question together so that people leave with greater clarity, stronger decisions, and a genuine understanding of where the opportunity lies.

 


 

Format: A single 90-minute briefing exploring One Question pertinent to your challenge.

Structure: A focused session with your leadership team, working through your challenge through the lens of One Question’s research, critical thinking and perspectives from across business, policy and community.

Outcomes: A stronger understanding of the forces shaping your market, better decisions through a cross-sector perspective and critical thinking, sharper judgement on where the risk and opportunity lie, and the space to think differently about the challenges you face every day.

 


Leadership Briefings

1 | How do we lead through uncertainty?

Uncertainty is not a temporary state to be resolved; it is the condition we lead in, and it always has been. The question is not how to find certainty but how to build organisations for the future without it.

2. | As AI becomes infrastructure, where does our competitive advantage lie?

As AI becomes the foundation of every organisation faster than any technology before it, how do leadership teams adopt and adapt to it to build more sustainable businesses and lasting competitive advantage?

3.| In 2026, are our relationships our greatest asset?

We have spent thirty years translating relationships into metrics and efficiency, and the consequences are now visible. The organisations that will have the greatest advantage are those that treat relationships as a compounding asset that gains value the more you invest in it.

“One Question is one of the most commercially valuable forums I’ve experienced, rare, open dialogue between senior leaders that sharpened my understanding of the forces shaping business and society.”
