Data Rich, Insight Poor: How to Close the Evidence Gap in Sales Enablement

The session "Data Rich, Insight Poor: How to Close the Evidence Gap in Sales Enablement" by Doug Hutton and Jay Livingston addresses the common issue of revenue teams relying on opinion rather than data despite abundant information, teaching attendees how to identify true enablement signals, avoid decision-making traps, and implement practical, evidence-based strategies to improve sales enablement effectiveness.

Time to say the quiet part out loud: After years of tech investments and endless reporting dashboards, most revenue teams are still making decisions like it’s 1999. Despite having more data than ever, deciding where to focus enablement strategy still falls back on opinion, politics, or plain old gut feel. It’s no wonder only 38 percent of CEOs believe they have the right data to achieve their goals.
