WHY THIS MATTERS
The Cost of Misalignment
92% of revenue leaders say internal misalignment is costing them. Yet only 21% are actively addressing it.
Based on findings from the 2025 Varicent Market Spotlight study of 1,400+ revenue professionals.
As organizations grow, expand into new markets, reorganize teams, and adjust go-to-market strategies, maintaining alignment becomes increasingly difficult.
The challenge isn't building the annual plan.
The challenge is keeping planning, execution, and compensation aligned after the plan changes.
