From Pilots to Paradigm Shift: AI Transformation at Jabil
About this episode
Vivian Sun discusses the ongoing nature of AI transformation and its impact on organizational structure at Jabil.
AI transformation at enterprise scale isn't a project with a finish line; it's an organizational reckoning with how people learn, work, and create value. Vivian Sun, Senior Director of Data & AI at Jabil, brings that reality into sharp focus in this episode of AWS Executive Insights. In conversation with Taimur Rashid, Managing Director of the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center, Vivian explains why AI demands continuous learning, not a one-time skillset. She also explores how Jabil's Octopus Organization model works in practice, with a central body setting strategy and guardrails, while distributed teams retain the freedom to innovate in the ways that work best for them. Together, these principles are what turn early pilots into lasting organizational change. This episode offers leaders a practical framework for scaling AI transformation across a global organization, while keeping people, not technology, at the center of the journey.
