## Tactical Playbook
- Leverage System 2 Deliberation: Approach decision-making with structured, data-driven arguments; avoid relying on intuitive, off-the-cuff pitches that trigger his skepticism of 'System 1' biases.
- Optimize for 'Sludge' Reduction: Present solutions that streamline operations and eliminate administrative burden. Frame improvements as 'choice architecture' that nudges teams toward efficiency without dictating behavior.
- Facilitate Diagnostic Dissent: During conflicts or slow-downs, act as a convener to surface unshared information. Encourage structured pushback from experts to counteract groupthink, treating delays as symptoms of unaddressed complexity rather than incompetence.
