## Tactical Playbook
- Provide autonomous ownership over complex, innovative projects while establishing rigid, non-negotiable regulatory boundaries upfront to mitigate organizational risks associated with his low compliance and high independence.
- Replace subjective behavioral feedback with objective, data-driven performance metrics; frame his developmental gaps as systemic inefficiencies rather than personal flaws to bypass his low self-evaluation and appeal to his high need for structure.
- Avoid traditional soft-skills mentoring, which he will instinctively reject due to his low coaching trait; instead, present leadership and management challenges as architectural problems for him to independently engineer and solve.
