WHAT HAPPENED

OpenAI announced that Chief Revenue Officer Denise Dresser will leave the company in the coming weeks, making her the second major executive to depart this week. Dresser, who joined the AI firm in December after serving as CEO of Slack, said she was leaving to pursue other opportunities, according to a team note posted to LinkedIn.

OpenAI confirmed that Dali Rajic, president and COO of Wiz, will step into the CRO role. The departure follows the earlier exit of Brad Lightcap, the special projects lead and former COO, who also announced he would be leaving. Dresser had assumed some of Lightcap's responsibilities when he moved to the special projects post. According to TechCrunch, the company’s shake‑up continues with the new CRO appointment.

These moves reflect a broader leadership reshuffle at OpenAI as it adjusts its executive structure to support growing product and research initiatives.

  • Denise Dresser, OpenAI’s CRO since December, will leave in the coming weeks to pursue other opportunities.
  • Dali Rajic, president and COO of Wiz, will replace Dresser as CRO.
  • The exit follows Brad Lightcap’s earlier departure as special projects lead and former COO.
