## Tactical Playbook
- Leverage his 'maniacal focus' by assigning high-autonomy teams, but ensure structural oversight to prevent speculative R&D from entirely outpacing strategic cash flow.
- Match his straightforward and blunt communication style. Ditch diplomatic phrasing in favor of data-backed, unvarnished truth; he respects pushback that operates on logical, operational grounds.
- Capitalize on his 'build-test-fail-fast' ethos. Frame failures as necessary data points for rapid iteration to maintain his high engagement, while actively managing his impatience during unavoidable bureaucratic delays.
