## Tactical Playbook
- Leverage his drive for decentralization by assigning him to tackle systemic bottlenecks and single points of failure in organizational architecture.
- When seeking buy-in, bypass committee-driven specifications in favor of rapid, functional prototyping ('rough consensus and running code') to align with his pragmatic bias.
- Empower his 'planned disruption' mindset by providing environments where he can design simple, modular, orthogonal frameworks to safely replace complex legacy systems.
