Kimberly Fields, President and CEO of ATI, discussed the company's focus on the specialty energy market in a May 2026 conversation with GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik. Fields described ATI's materials, including titanium, zirconium, hafnium, and nickel-based alloys, as supporting customers in harsh environments and highlighted the company's partnership with GE Vernova to meet growing electricity demand. She stated that ATI is having strategic discussions with customers about demand through 2035, a shift from the previous 24-to-36-month planning cycle, and expressed a goal to close the gap between ATI's energy business and its larger aerospace and defense operations. In an April 2025 podcast, Fields recounted her career path from a materials science engineer to CEO, noting her early work in plants and her preference for problem-solving in operational settings. She described ATI's strategic shift away from standard stainless products toward highly differentiated aerospace and defense materials, where the company is one of only a few global suppliers. Fields also shared her management philosophy, including a focus on asking "what would have to be true" to solve customer challenges and a belief that "fortune favors the bold" in navigating risks in the current macroeconomic and geopolitical environment.
