The GTM Confidence Index FY27. How confident are B2B leaders in delivering growth?

Last year, the inaugural GTM Confidence Index revealed a striking reality: very few commercial leaders felt truly confident they would achieve their growth targets. As we move into FY27, we're inviting senior B2B leaders to contribute to this year's benchmark. Survey duration: approximately 7 minutes.

GTM Confidence Index FY27
Why This Research Matters

Confidence is becoming a critical growth indicator.

Many organisations have ambitious growth plans. Far fewer have the operational foundations required to deliver them consistently. The FY26 report identified a growing confidence gap between ambition and execution, and the FY27 study will examine whether that gap is widening or narrowing.

Growth confidence and execution readiness

How aligned are ambition and capability? We will measure confidence against the operational foundations required to deliver predictable revenue growth.

Revenue predictability and forecast confidence

Pipeline quality, forecast accuracy, and how leaders are improving reliability in an uncertain economic environment.

AI maturity and commercial impact

How organisations are deploying AI across GTM, and whether adoption is translating into measurable commercial outcomes.

Sales and marketing alignment

One of the most persistent barriers to growth. We will examine what high-performing organisations are doing differently.

Investment priorities and resource allocation

Where leaders are placing their bets, and which investments are delivering the greatest return.

Pipeline quality and GTM technology effectiveness

From conversion performance to tech stack ROI, measuring what's working and what isn't across commercial execution.

By participating, you'll help create one of the industry's most comprehensive benchmarks for commercial growth confidence and go-to-market effectiveness.
