Pluralsight, a technology workforce development company, announced that Chris Walters has been named president and CEO. After more than 20 years of distinguished leadership, Aaron Skonnard will step down from his day-to-day operational duties as CEO. Still, he will continue to advise the company as a special advisor to the board and CEO.
Walters most recently served as CEO of Avantax, a leader in tax-focused financial planning and wealth management, where he orchestrated the company’s successful sale to Cetera Holdings.
“Having led multiple companies with significant technology organizations, I understand how important it is for companies to have the technical skills required to execute their strategies,” said Walters. “Pluralsight is well positioned to address the critical technology skills gap that so many organizations are facing. I look forward to joining the team and continuing to build upon its legacy as the leading technology workforce development company.”
