Akanksha Purswani

Associate General Manager - HR, Schneider Electric India Pvt Ltd

Akanksha entered the HR field for its promise of variety, and HR hasn’t let her down ever since! Akanksha believes that HR must transition from being a “Business Partner” to “Business Driver”. HR professionals must develop better understanding of business to deserve a seat at the table. Instead of just being a ‘partner’, HR must develop our capability to actually drive the business – to drive and/or challenge business decisions. For Akanksha, the biggest talent priority would be to prepare her organization to leverage the digital trends in the industry.
