## Tactical Playbook
- Operate with Radical Transparency: Frame all communications in the form of 'brutal honesty'. Skip consensus-building and politicking; instead, present unvarnished facts, as the subject deeply resents being managed or misled.
- Fuel the Iteration Engine: Provide granular, dynamic systems rather than static reports. The subject thrives on continuous modeling ('the magnetic boards') and identifying micro-advantages ('one degree of difference'), so feed their obsessive need to endlessly tinker with assets.
- Isolate from Bureaucracy, Leverage as High-Level Veto: Because of a volatile intolerance for diluted standards, shield the subject from daily institutional friction. Position them as a 'legitimizer' and strategic sage who operates via high-conviction vetoes rather than forcing them into democratic management roles.
