Primary Duties and Responsibilities: To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each primary duty satisfactorily. • Own and evolve OCC's enterprise AI literacy program, ensuring role-appropriate AI training reaches all users of AI at OCC on hire and at least annually thereafter, consistent with the Artificial Intelligence Policy. • Lead the workforce transformation agenda associated with AI adoption, partnering with business functions to redesign roles as AI is embedded into how work gets done. • Design and drive change management programs for individual AI use cases as they move from production into broad adoption, working in coordination with the AI Solutions Leads who own use case delivery. • Identify and address adoption friction, resistance, and AI literacy gaps at the enterprise level before they surface as recurring, use-case-level failures. • Develop and track adoption metrics (e.g., embedded/recurrent AI use by role and function) and report progress against OCC's AI Strategy adoption targets. • Partner with AI Portfolio & Transformation (AIPT) to align enablement and change activities with the AI roadmap and the pace of the use case pipeline reaching production. • Build change management playbooks and communication materials that can be reused across use cases and business functions. • Serve as a point of connection between the business, AIPT, and AIRE on questions of adoption readiness and organizational impact.
