What does it take to scale AI across 100 factories in 25 countries? Vivian Sun, Senior Director of Data & AI at Jabil, shares why AI transformation demands a "win fast, fail fast" culture, tracking value at every iteration instead of chasing the perfect solution. 📈 Jabil's approach: a federated "Octopus Organization" model where central strategy sets guardrails while distributed teams innovate freely. The result AI prototypes grew from 20 to over 1,000 in a single year, driven by empowered employees, not top-down mandates. 🐙 Her advice: put business value before technology, plan for legacy integration upfront, and find the low-hanging fruit that builds momentum. 🚀 Watch now: 👉 https://go.aws/3Rolie1 Hosted by: 🎙️ Taimur Rashid, Managing Director, AWS Generative AI Innovation Center #AWS #AWSExecutiveInsights #generativeAI #AITransformation #Manufacturing #DigitalTransformation

In security, change is constant and curiosity is your greatest asset. 🔐 Amy Herzog, Chief Information Security Officer at AWS, challenges us to approach every problem with the mindset: "What if it didn't go the way we expect it to? What would happen if?" 🔍 That curiosity is what draws people to the security field and it's exactly what will carry security professionals forward over the next three to five years. The tools in your toolbox will look different. But the mindset? That never changes.🧭 Watch now 👉 https://go.aws/40VWfQZ Hosted by 🎙️ Clarke Rodgers, Sr. Principal, Office of the CISO #AWSExecutiveInsights #AWS #CyberSecurity #SecurityLeadership #CloudSecurity
