Founded by Dave Baney, 55 Questions is a discovery process to help CEOs and their management teams create a clear picture of their business’s current state, determine daunting but attainable growth goals, and shape the path to reach that destination.

Using a direct questioning method (sometimes surprisingly so), we’ll lead you to a better understanding of your corporate landscape from both a bird’s eye and worm’s eye view. There will be accountability, where things now fall through cracks. That cluttered growth plan will be simplified, delineated and effective.

Where do you start? Take our self-diagnostic to find out where your business is hitting on all cylinders and where you need a spark plug.
