Clayton Mohamed: How to build the best workplace for AI and digital?

What does it take to build a workplace where AI and digital talent not only join—but stay, grow, and thrive? 

In this episode of the AI at Scale Podcast, we sit down with Clayton Mohamed, VP HR at Schneider Digital, who has spent the last six years shaping the company’s digital talent strategy and building the operating model behind Schneider Electric’s global AI Hub. With more than 18 years at Schneider, Clayton has witnessed every phase of digital transformation—from early experimentation to today’s enterprisescale AI adoption. 

Why this episode matters 

The rise of AI has created a massive shift in workforce expectations. Digital talent today wants: 
✅ real growth paths, not just peoplemanager roles 
✅ space for experimentation, research, and technical depth 
✅ a culture that treats AI as an enabler—not a threat 
✅ transparency around skills, levels, and opportunities 
✅ a company that invests in continuous learning 

Clayton explains how Schneider Electric is responding—through programs designed specifically for digital mastery, career clarity, and longterm retention. 

If you're an HR leader, digital leader, or anyone building an AI-capable organization, this episode is a masterclass.
