Sample Answer
The first thing I’d do is get facts, not opinions. Within 24–48 hours, I’d convene legal, government relations, and local advisors to translate the new regulation into concrete impacts: licensing, timelines, and cost deltas per country. I’d have the PMO quickly re-run our financial model and scenario plan: worst case, base case, and a “phased-entry” option. With that clarity, I’d meet the hesitant stakeholder one-on-one, share the scenarios, and explicitly show how we protect 70–80% of the original business case by phasing high-risk markets to a later wave. Then I’d bring the broader steering committee together, recommend a revised roadmap that swaps in lower-risk markets first, keeps the overall budget flat, and extends the long pole milestones by no more than 10–15%. Finally, I’d update the risk register, communication plan, and KPIs so every country team knows the revised targets and decision gates.
