## Tactical Playbook
- Leverage Empirical Bluntness: Channel his pattern of 'Contrarian Correction' into constructive institutional reform, ensuring that his blunt, data-first critiques are paired with actionable methodological alternatives to maximize field-wide adoption without causing unnecessary academic isolation.
- Capitalize on Intellectual Plasticity: Utilize his willingness to publicly evolve on core economic issues as a leadership tool to foster a culture of evidence-based humility among peers, turning reputational risks into masterclasses on scientific integrity.
- Interdisciplinary Stewardship: Position him in cross-functional, advisory roles where his 'bottom-up' operational rhythm and moral philosophy can synthesize diverse datasets, allowing his steady, painstaking focus on micro-level human welfare to override entrenched technocratic blindness.
