At One Question, we believe that by asking better questions, we find new answers and with them, new opportunities.

In a time defined by constant change, political and economic instability, and shifting cultural norms, asking the right questions is essential to building relationships and, in turn, profitable and sustainable organisations for the long term.

We do this in two ways:

As a community, we ask One Question each year and explore it through a series of curated conversations across markets and industries, supported by research and followed by critical thinking. From CEOs to academics, activists, researchers, and policymakers, we convene influence in ways you might not expect, to challenge assumptions, find new inspiration, common ground, and new relationships.

Our members lead the conversation, shape the conversation, and ask their One Question.

As a consultancy, we work with organisations through Many Answers, distilling your biggest challenges into a single question. Through mixed-method research and curated conversations—inside and outside your organisation —we find new answers that create genuine change, clear direction, and lasting commercial value.

 

There are always answers to our biggest challenges if we ask the right question. 

One Question is ROI and indulgence.

One Question is a fantastic forum for delving deeply into issues and topics vital for today's leaders and for connecting with intelligent people who offer provocative perspectives on those issues.

The best conversation of the year.

James Whatley, Lego

One Question is one of the highlights of my year. In a world of fast-paced sound bites flying around the social ether, it presented itself as an oasis of calm and reflection. By focusing on one question answered from various angles it moves us from our usual distractions to a far more stately pace, where depth replaced breadth. In short, I loved it.

Fred Bolza, Sony Music

If Vanity Fair and TED Talks had a lovechild.

One Question in one word. Necessary.
