Schneider Electric trying to define its value add in the green revolution

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

TAC business unit very well positioned to take business in commercial and other markets with a complete solution. Products are superb and rich in depth, quality, acceptance.

Cons

Businesses tend to exist as islands of information, competency. Much competition for resources, prioritization for capital funding, special projects, staffing etc. As a result business unit heads tend to view allied businesses as competition for the above rather than logical business partners to create, build new business.
