This not only impacted processes and working environments, but accelerated digital transformation efforts, exposing major barriers to technology adoption.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile sales organizations have demonstrated immense resilience over the past year, many are either struggling or reluctant to use new technology to its fullest extent. Our report shows how the industry\u2019s dependence on the status quo, or relying on gut instinct rather than data, inhibits an organization\u2019s long-term success,\u201d said Chris Cabrera, founder and CEO at Xactly. \u201cIn the face of continued challenges from distributed work, leaders must embrace advanced data analytics and automation to optimize revenue generating decisions with actionable insights. Digital transformation can\u2019t happen instantaneously \u2014 it requires a clear vision and roadmap, as well as alignment among key decision makers. The same roadblocks that respondents shared are impeding innovation today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Xactly\u2019s research identified three major trends confronting enterprise revenue leaders:<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Trend 1: Volatile Revenue Goals &amp; Ambitious Sales Quotas Put Pressure on Sales Leaders<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Sales organizations navigated unprecedented disruption over the last year. A vast majority changed both revenue goals and sales rep quotas in response to the pandemic. Yet sales reps are still held to pre-COVID standards of performance. Respondents noted that progress to revenue goals (29%) and achieving sales quotas (25%) remain the top measures of success. Challenged with this adversity, half of revenue leaders report that less than 50% of their sellers performed at or above quota.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Trend 2: Tech Adoption is on the Rise\u2013but There\u2019s Still an Over-Reliance on Gut Instinct<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Half of all surveyed revenue leaders say it\u2019s more difficult than ever to forecast bookings. However, there is reluctance to change processes, as doing things the way \u201cthey have always been done\u201d is the most influential factor in sales planning decision-making today (29%), followed by relying on data analytics and intelligent analysis (28%) and gut feelings or trusted colleagues (24%). Yet many revenue leaders see the benefit of data and automation, with 41% agreeing that AI should be part of any high-performing sales team. Many cited cost constraints as a major barrier to adoption (32%), as well as legacy systems (27%) and lack of buy-in from company leadership (22%).<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Trend 3: Despite More Complexity, Remote Work Presents New Opportunities<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Distributed work has made achieving sales goals more difficult, with many respondents citing a lack of in-person meetings with clients (33%), budgetary constraints (28%), and lack of internal in-person meetings (27%) as the primary barriers to success. As a result of these hurdles and increased pressure, it\u2019s been a volatile year for talent. Sales rep turnover is higher than ever. Over the last 12 months, organizations have exited sales reps, and sales reps have voluntarily left their companies, at higher rates than usual.<\/p>\n<p>To read an in-depth analysis of the findings, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=aA-puazVbDfytk-r-R7GtOCuU_oNAvjcvVhCr7iRvAmzAyJBb3SmuPovCukn29Dv2TU1rA3IpB7-093TgMSH9jGSJeCaOsg3rDpkYk6uDCko1XfHSORb3v6t5REITgEy03JnW47PCT8VRZeSum_AoTk3OnPF3unMQbmwN3RjUSQscK7egF7hEM3gNk12Ckaq\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>download the State of Global Enterprise Sales Performance in its entirety.<\/u><\/a> To learn more about Xactly, its products and offerings, or if you are looking to join the company\u2019s expanding team, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=Wao_-KghmyxkTV8foenH6eknHoI_nbo5F4drnvUT-C7VDIRL_Y4FbNOpDCyhQmYhv9rUUQmPFjv6E1Hr8vM-kbZ7CS3AJZuEsUcSVj3mMnc=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><u>xactlycorp.com.<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Xactly<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Xactly empowers growing enterprises to effectively manage their revenue generation.
