Brain2Brain: AI & Corporate Training
On October 21, 2026, AI Swiss will host a new brain2brain session in Neuchâtel focused on the evolution of skills and training practices in light of the growing integration of artificial intelligence into the professional world. Bringing together experts in training, leadership, and organizational transformation, this evening event will feature several presentations followed by a panel discussion to explore the conditions for sustainable collaboration between humans and AI.
Beyond Tools: Rethinking Professional Skills and Practices in the Age of AI
Artificial intelligence is transforming not only tools, but also the skills required, learning methods, and the organization of work.
The main shift involves skills. About 30% of SMEs with experience using AI report that these tools are already changing the types of candidates they seek. The focus is shifting toward proficiency with the tools, critical analysis of results, data protection, and the ability to integrate AI into business processes.

Artificial intelligence is transforming not only the tools we use, but also the skills expected of employees, learning methods, and the organization of work. Beyond mastering prompts, companies must now learn to identify tasks that can be delegated to AI, foster critical thinking, verify results, and preserve human skills. How can we support this evolution without widening the gaps between employees? How can we tailor training to different job roles and ensure that new generations continue to learn?
The event will address these issues from the perspectives of change management, leadership, and skills development, with several presentations on the agenda, such as:
- The Real Challenge of Acquiring New AI Skills with Julien Schiess, who will discuss the challenges of building skills and transforming teams through AI, without losing sight of the human element.
- Leadership in the Age of AI: Sustainable AI Leadership (SAIL) with Dr. Vincent Nassar, focusing on supporting leaders and organizations to inform their decisions, safeguard their investments, and promote the sustainable adoption of AI.
For small and medium-sized enterprises in French-speaking Switzerland, this event encourages them to consider the adoption of AI beyond its purely technological aspect. The challenge now is to develop professional skills and practices in line with business needs, while supporting employees through this transformation.
