## Tactical Playbook
- Harness his impatience with bureaucracy by positioning him as a skunkworks leader; provide him with rapid-prototyping autonomy to bypass institutional friction and accelerate empirical breakthroughs.
- Channel his unconventional communication instincts (e.g., direct-to-public appeals) into structured thought leadership, ensuring he maintains leverage without alienating key institutional partners or funding bodies.
- Leverage his cross-disciplinary pivot capacity by surrounding him with rigorous operational managers who can systematize and scale his disruptive ideas, translating 'lone-wolf' discoveries into sustainable commercial or global health applications.
