Wes Herzik on the AI Success Factors Podcast
In this episode of the AI Success Factors Podcast, host Samuel Matthew sits down with Wes Herzik, Executive Director of Enterprise AI Transformation & Operations at JPMorganChase, to unpack why so many AI initiatives succeed in pilots—but fail to move the P&L at scale.
Wes brings a practitioner’s lens on what it truly takes to operationalize AI across large enterprises—where workflows, governance, and people matter as much as models.
“AI scaling isn’t a technology problem. It’s an operating model and leadership challenge.”
— Wes Herzik, Executive Director, Enterprise AI Transformation & Operations, JPMorganChase
