## Tactical Playbook
- Leverage his high initiative and innovation by assigning autonomous, outcome-driven projects rather than process-heavy tasks, while explicitly defining non-negotiable compliance boundaries to prevent rogue execution.
- Compensate for his low collaboration by pairing him with a strong operational integrator who can manage stakeholder communications, allowing him to operate independently without alienating the broader team.
- Counteract his low self-evaluation by implementing frequent, metric-based feedback loops; provide direct, objective course corrections rather than expecting him to self-monitor or intuitively gauge his impact on the organization.
