By 2030, enterprises will account for over 50% of total Earth intelligence spending, up from less than 15% in 2024.

Gartner (NYSE:IT) has identified three critical priorities for chief supply chain officers (CSCOs) to address the impacts of the Israel-Iran conflict. The priorities include: assessing global transportation bottlenecks, preparing for supply chain cost volatility, and reviewing resilience strategies.

The conflict has significantly disrupted key shipping routes, with container traffic below pre-crisis levels in the Red Sea and Suez Canal, increased risks in the Strait of Hormuz, and pressure on major regional ports. Companies face rising costs across energy, transportation, insurance, inventory, and technology. CSCOs must work closely with CFOs to manage budget impacts and strengthen supply chain resilience through supplier network assessment and risk mitigation planning.

A Gartner survey reveals that personalized marketing, while driving some positive outcomes, leads to negative experiences for 53% of customers. The study of 1,464 B2B buyers and consumers found that personalization makes customers 3.2x more likely to regret purchases and 44% less likely to repurchase, despite being 1.8x more likely to pay premium prices. The research highlights a paradox where customers feel overwhelmed and pressured during purchase journeys. However, Gartner introduces 'active personalization' as a solution, showing 2.3x higher confidence in purchase decisions compared to traditional methods. This approach focuses on customer engagement through interactive experiences, empowering individuals to make better decisions while generating valuable zero-party data for businesses.

A recent Gartner survey reveals that 60% of customer service agents fail to promote self-service options to customers. The study, which surveyed 5,801 customers in early 2025, found that when agents mention self-service, 25% make neutral comments and 12% make negative remarks. The research highlights that customers who receive self-service promotion from agents are twice as likely to adopt these solutions in future interactions. Regarding Generative AI adoption, while 55% of service leaders plan to explore GenAI chatbots by 2025, only 35% of phone-using customers are willing to adopt GenAI digital assistants. This resistance is attributed to customers' satisfaction with traditional phone service, which remains the dominant channel. Gartner recommends integrating GenAI solutions as complementary to phone interactions rather than replacements.

Paid search maintains leadership at 13.9% of digital spend, while digital display advertising (12.5%) has surpassed social advertising (12.2%). Email marketing remains stable at 7.4% of digital spend. The study highlights significant shifts in channel effectiveness, with search advertising showing high spend and impact, while video and streaming platforms face challenges due to saturation. Retail media networks have emerged as key players, outperforming traditional channels. The findings reflect CMOs' strategic adaptation to evolving consumer behaviors and technological changes, including impacts of delayed cookie deprecation, GenAI emergence, and TikTok uncertainties.

A Gartner survey reveals that only 45% of Chief Sales Officers (CSOs) report meeting their 2024 strategic goals.

Additionally, 74% of CSOs indicate a need for significant changes in seller skills, with 58% of sellers requiring reskilling or upskilling by 2026 due to AI. The survey also found that only 23% of CSOs are accountable for AI selection, while 68% merely provide input or are informed about AI decisions, highlighting challenges in technology implementation and strategic alignment.
