I wouldn’t ask them anything because most business owners I work with and have come across do things quite poorly, and in many cases their success is despite their bad management rather than because of it, and is facilitated by people under them. I’d rather ask successful people who are slightly under them hierarchically (i.e., second or third in command) and would probably get more practical value out of whatever question I even would ask.
Second, one question does nothing. What’s more valuable in my view is having a person explain their thought process or methodology/approach rather than asking them a single linear one-question zinger.
