## Tactical Playbook
- Channel his intense operational friction by continuing to surround him with a loyal, highly capable inner circle that can absorb his 21-hour pacing and translate his creative filters into structured outputs.
- Leverage his instinct-driven crisis management by leaning into 'momentum-over-planning' workflows when schedules compress, allowing him to adapt dynamically effectively without bureaucratic institutional interference.
- Mitigate his tendency for painstaking micromanagement (e.g., hundreds of takes, forensic tweaking) by establishing clear time-box constraints on set, preventing his detail obsession from eroding overall project momentum.
