## Tactical Playbook
- Define the 'what' and 'why' but relinquish control over the 'how'; leverage his high independence and initiative by establishing clear end-goals while removing bureaucratic compliance frameworks that will stifle his momentum.
- Frame feedback as 'strategic brainstorming' rather than traditional coaching; because he actively resists formal coaching and self-evaluation, present performance adjustments as complex, innovative challenges to solve rather than personal deficits to correct.
- Implement data-driven, objective milestone check-ins to compensate for his lack of self-evaluation; use external metrics and tangible outcomes to guide his high initiative, ensuring his forward drive remains aligned with organizational objectives without requiring deep introspection.
