Revenue leadership requires more than tracking growth. This blog outlines the 10 KPIs CEOs and revenue leaders must monitor to drive execution discipline, margin health, and enterprise value across complex, multi-engine businesses.

Most organizations still measure AI like an automation project — tracking time saved instead of value created. This blog challenges that mindset, reframing AI as a growth engine that directly shapes enterprise valuation. It introduces the Enterprise Value Framework: Offensive (revenue and margin expansion), Defensive (risk mitigation), and Strategic (competitive differentiation). Through actionable dashboards, CEO communication frameworks, and valuation metrics, the article shows how leading boards quantify AI’s impact — not in cost savings, but in market leadership and sustained enterprise growth.

Janice Liu’s entrepreneurial instincts kicked in early: at just ten years old, she spotted a market inefficiency in international collectibles and cleared $20,000 selling Beanie Babies through classified ads. Today, she applies that same instinct to the corporate world, arguing that most enterprises are sitting on a goldmine they treat like a storage closet. In this episode of The Revenue Room, the Mantis Group CEO reveals why "every company is a data company" whether they like it or not. Janice breaks down her proprietary methodology for appraising data assets—often proving they are worth more than a company's traditional operating business—and explains how this valuation can radically increase M&A multiples. We dive deep into "shadow inefficiencies," the mechanics of brokering data deals with Large Language Models (LLMs), and why ethical consent is the single most critical factor in future-proofing your revenue. If you think your data is just a compliance risk, this conversation will change your entire balance sheet.

This blog reframes AI oversight as a matter of architectural readiness rather than operational efficiency. Too many boards still ask surface-level questions—focused on tools, ROI, or departmental pilots—without assessing whether their organizations are structurally prepared for AI-driven transformation. Drawing on research from Deloitte, McKinsey, NACD, and Harvard Corporate Governance, the article introduces a 25-question AI Readiness Assessment framework that board members can use to reveal gaps across strategy, data, governance, culture, and market positioning. Each question is designed to uncover whether a company is capable of sustaining AI-led transformation or simply experimenting with pilots. A scoring rubric then helps boards evaluate readiness levels, from “AI-Architecture Ready” to “Readiness Gap.” The blog concludes with guidance for board chairs, common pitfalls, and a preview of RevvedUP 2026, where leading CEOs and boards will share real-world AI governance strategies.
