## Tactical Playbook
- Assign goal-oriented initiatives that leverage his high innovation and independence, providing broad strategic guardrails rather than strict procedural compliance requirements to prevent bottlenecking his creative output.
- Implement mandatory burnout-prevention checkpoints; his extreme persistence coupled with a low prioritization of personal well-being requires active external monitoring to ensure sustainable, long-term performance.
- Position him as an independent trailblazer rather than a traditional people manager, mitigating his low coaching drive by pairing him with a strong operational leader who can handle team development and mentorship.
