do you just literally ask that or rephrase the question to "what are the expectations for me"? I mean sometimes what keep the VP up at night is not sth relevant to or disclosable to you.
I'm sure most VPs have multiple things that keep them up at night, so I'd expect them to pick one they could legally disclose :) .
If they do talk about something that will get them in legal trouble, well, that's a good piece of data to have about your company (they have a VP who might get in legal trouble).
And probably, if they're good, pick one that is relevant to the person they are in conversation with. So not "I'm worried about my aging father and his health" and more "I think that these zero-days are going to become more and more common", etc etc.
