Updated 9m agoWhat's happening: B2B leaders must build a cross‑functional GTM skill stack to close capability gaps
The Forrester blog warns that the emerging GTM singularity is widening capability gaps for B2B leaders, who now need a cross‑functional skill stack to run a connected revenue engine. Traditional functional silos no longer suffice; leaders must align marketing, sales, product and customer success, modernize buyer‑led processes, and leverage AI‑driven insights. Closing this gap requires new certifications and integrated talent development.
