Five Strategic Questions
Capabilities That Drive Growth
We're worried AI might disrupt our core business, but we don't know where the threats are coming from or how fast they'll hit.
Leaders feel exposed because they lack a systematic way to identify vulnerabilities across their business model. They need an outside perspective to spot blind spots and assess realistic timelines for disruption.
Our competitors are talking about AI advantages, but we can't figure out what AI investments would actually give us sustainable competitive differentiation.
Companies struggle to separate AI hype from real strategic opportunities. Too many options paralyze them and they need help identifying which AI initiatives could create lasting moats versus short-term efficiency gains.
We know AI is changing customer expectations rapidly, but we're not sure if we're building the right capabilities for where the market is heading.
Organizations feel disconnected from how AI is reshaping what customers will value in 2-3 years. They need external insight to validate their product roadmap against emerging market dynamics.
We want to maximize our valuation for a future exit, but we don't understand what AI-related assets or capabilities strategic buyers will pay premiums for.
Leadership teams lack visibility into how AI is changing their NorthStar, acquisition criteria, and valuations in their sector. They need guidance on which AI investments will boost enterprise value versus just operational efficiency.
We're stuck thinking about AI as an add-on to our current business instead of reimagining what's possible - and we suspect that's limiting our growth potential.
Companies recognize that they’re being too incremental with AI, but they lack the framework and objectivity to envision transformative applications. They need external facilitation to break free from existing constraints and explore bigger opportunities.
