AI and the Workforce: Redesigning What's Next | Clémentine Al-Elimat, Schneider Electric

How do you move from simply giving people AI tools to genuinely redesigning how work gets done? In this episode of The Talent Development Hot Seat — part of the FutureReady series, produced in partnership with Emeritus — Andy Storch talks with Clémentine Al-Elimat, who leads HR for Schneider Electric's Power Systems business, a €9 billion, 13,000-person global organization. She previously led the people side of building Schneider's AI-native Energy Management Software and Services division from the ground up. Clémentine shares her three stages of AI adoption, why "AI plus" beats "plus AI," how Schneider has organized around AI with AI champions and an AI steering committee, the three fears employees bring to AI transformation, and why culture — not technology — will be the long-term differentiator.
