Chris, I have never been part of Siebel's organization. As a Siebel customer, my team implemented one of Siebel's first large SFA implementations. I worked closely with lots of Siebel guys making that happen, so my perspective was that of a customer -- not that of an employee-- in '96/'97. At that time, it appeared that Tom had to make every decision. The sales and finance organization seemed especially frustrated by Tom's inability to delegate decision-making.

I *assume* that Tom has loosened the reigns since then. I can't imagine that the current management team would accept Tom's involvement in every customer/product issue. Siebel is doing a helluva job scaling its organization to take advantage of the CRM market. Another sign to me that Tom is letting his organization run the company.
