OpenAI has appointed Slack CEO Denise Dresser as its new chief revenue officer, where she will lead global revenue strategy across enterprise and customer success.

Dresser brings deep experience in scaling workplace products, having guided Slack through its Salesforce integration and previously built major global sales organisations at Salesforce.

Her arrival comes as businesses worldwide move from AI experimentation to full-scale adoption, with workers reporting significant time savings and improved productivity.

OpenAI is already supporting this shift through ChatGPT for Work and its API platform, now used by more than one million business customers including Walmart, Morgan Stanley, Intuit, Databricks, Target and Lowe’s.
