The CEO of my company is a micro manager - how to make it stop?

The CEO founded the 30 person company, and there are no other investors- it's all his money. He's a micro-manager who won't let the VPs of sales, product management or engineering make any decisions without his OK. Basically, the CEO comes up with all strategies, and the VPs execute his vision. He smart, and he knows it- which makes him super cocky and he can't be contradicted. I'd like to think that the VP of sales can figure out how to sell our software, and the VP of engineering can be responsible for making it. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Anyone have any advice on how to tell a CEO with no superiors to let everyone do their jobs?
