## Tactical Playbook
- Define clear end-goals and allow him to leverage his high Independence and Innovation to determine the execution path; avoid enforcing rigid methodologies by framing necessary boundaries as structural constraints rather than bureaucratic policies.
- Pair him with developmentally focused leaders to handle team coaching and regulatory tasks, freeing him to channel his high Initiative into driving vanguard projects without the burden of mentorship duties he naturally deprioritizes.
- Deliver performance feedback using strictly objective, metric-driven data rather than prompting for self-reflection; because he scores low in Self-Evaluation, bypass introspective exercises and directly tie performance metrics to future opportunities for autonomous work.
