KGBTexas Communications Shares Results of Worldcom Confidence Index

Employee-related topics represent five of the top seven topics for corporate CEOs and CMOs in the most recent Worldcom Confidence Index, a monthly snapshot of chief executive and chief marketing officer sentiment from around the world. KGBTexas Communications, a member of the Worldcom Group, shares key findings of particular relevance:

"These key findings demonstrate the importance of human capital in rebuilding the economy," said Katie Harvey, founder and CEO of KGBTexas Communications. "Companies that are willing and able to invest in their people will succeed in adapting to the changes that the pandemic has accelerated. The global perspective I'm afforded through our Worldcom partnership is invaluable, providing insight into the forces shaping the business world, which in turn allows me to anticipate and act strategically for our clients."

Also of note for the Texas economy, the energy sector ranks at the bottom of the newly released Worldcom Confidence Index. CMO confidence within the sector has plummeted as challenges rise within the industry, which continues to deal with the impact of COVID-19. "As a Texas-based CEO, I'm optimistic about the outlook of the energy sector here, and expect the industry will begin an upward swing in 2021 as the recovery continues," Harvey added.

The Worldcom Confidence Index shares global data derived from a sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) tool that reflects the confidence levels of over 54,000 CEOs and CMOs across industries on a variety of issues. The findings are indicative of the variables proving to be of most concern to business leaders, along with their confidence in addressing them.
