181 Life Is On | Schneider Electric www.se.com Chapter 2 – Sustainable development Strategic Report 2. 2.5.3.8 Digitizing access to learning and development Schneider Electric launched a global career development platform, Open Talent Market (OTM), in 2020, available to all white collar employees globally. The tool leverages AI (Artificial Intelligence) to match the supply and demand of internal talent with a transparent, digital, and borderless approach, empowering employees to drive their own careers by discovering opportunities for mentoring, new positions, and part-time projects, as well as potential career paths. The ambition for usage is to increase 3x the number of employee-driven development interactions in the OTM by 2025 (SSE #21). At the end of 2021, 71% of eligible employees are registered on the platform and 25% of those have engaged in some type of opportunity since registration. Through OTM in 2021, 553 employees have been given visibility to over 1,100 open positions, 3,229 mentoring relationships were formed and 3,248 part-time project roles were assigned. OTM’s Career Planning functionality was launched in June 2021 and almost 20,000 employees visited the feature before the end of the year. 4x the number of employee-driven development interactions on the Open Talent Market Testimonial from Randy Kesel, Customer Project Specialist, North America Operations. ‘Since OTM opened a couple of years ago, it has steadily grown as a user-friendly tool to help Schneider employees realize their potential. There are abundant opportunities for anyone that wants to take their career to the next level, whether that is participating in a project, finding a new position, or taking on a mentoring role. I really think the new Career Planning feature will be a game changer for anyone that wants to map out future role suggestions and how to get there. I’ve frequently used OTM to find new projects, such as the NAM OTM Champions Community, and to stay informed of open positions within the company.’ Equal SSE #21 x4 5,019 Baseline 2025 target 2021 Progress 0 100 x2.1 Schneider Electric also has an open learning ecosystem comprised of interconnected platforms at the center of which is My LearningLink (MLL).
