Nowadays, this isn’t the only criteria. Today called developers, professional software engineers are aware of the importance of soft skills.

In an interview at TechCrunch Disrupt in 2014 , then-CEO of Pure Storage, Scott Dietzen, was asked about the possibility of exiting via acquisition. He didn’t pull any punches: “Acquisitions always suck, and suck worse than you think that they are going to suck.” That doesn’t sound like getting acquired is the best thing that could happen to your startup, but this is only one perspective on the matter, and perhaps it depends who you ask.

During times of stress and change, when you most need a resourceful team, it’s easy to clampdown, insist on the old ways of doing things, and slow your team down. In our research on innovation and psychological safety, 67% of employees said their manager operates around the notion of “this is the way we’ve always done it.” It’s tough for teams to be quick and clever in those circumstances.

These days, the convention centers and hotel ballrooms that once hosted those events are dark and quiet. Even though most employees are vaccinated, companies are still reluctant to send them to in-person events, and in the midst of a pandemic, many workers are reluctant to get on a plane.
