Welcome to the party: PluralSight acquires DevelopIntelligence

Congratulations to PluralSight on your October 14, 2020 acquisition of DevelopIntelligence. I especially want to call out Aaron Skonnard, co-founder and CEO of PluralSight, for recognizing the value of instructor expertise in helping people learn emerging software. In Skonnard’s words, this acquisition is about combining PluralSight’s on-demand skill development offerings with DevelopIntelligence’s instructor-led and strategic consulting services, in order to “broaden upskilling experiences for enterprises and to enable businesses to accelerate their digital transformations.” 

I believe that PluralSight has realized that as software has a more direct impact on competitiveness and software buyers’ financial performance, organizations cannot risk their high investments in technology to on-demand learning. Self-paced learning sounds great, but in the end, most managers cannot take the chance that people in their organizations will be able to learn emerging software technologies watching videos on a tablet, while seated in the waiting room at the dentist’s office.
