Denise Dresser, OpenAI's chief revenue officer, is leaving after just eight months, becoming the second senior leader to exit in days. The departure comes as the company prepares for a potential initial public offering.

Dresser announced her decision on LinkedIn, saying she would stay for a transition period and had been working with co-founder Greg Brockman to ensure a smooth handoff. Earlier this week, COO Brad Lightcap also left to start a new venture.

The narrative that OpenAI is in organisational freefall is overdone. Yes, two top executives have left in a week, but the company still holds a commanding lead in generative AI and has just raised billions. Every fast-growing startup sees churn at the top. What matters is whether the departures slow customer acquisition or product development. The next quarterly revenue figure will tell us if Dresser's exit has any real impact.
