Jeff,

You’ve always been a great advocate for Lead Management. I don’t see that changing no matter what your title is.

Good luck…

Thanks for the positive comments. Seeing the press release yesterday was indeed bittersweet, but I love new challanges and wouldn’t be happy without experiencing big change. I believe having willingness to do whatever it takes is at the heart of the organization, from the top down.

Not knowing anything specific about this situation, any time an executive steps down to let someone else lead, and stays part of the team, I give that person great kudos. It is a triumph of team play over personal ego, and I only wish this happened more often. Passing the ball and rebounding are as important as scoring.

I wanted to provide more commentary, but did not have time…I have a few seconds now.

I think this is a good example of a company in its growth stage that involves VC funding, high level board members and therefore decreasing control of its founders. With that said though Jeff probably did not have to make this move and could have easily stayed in his current postion, but thought is was the best for the companies success. I think this is an honorable move by Jeff and will probably serve his company very well and enable it to grow even further.
