## Tactical Playbook
- Provide outcome-based objectives rather than rigid procedural guidelines, granting him the autonomy to leverage his high initiative and innovation while mitigating friction caused by his natural resistance to compliance.
- Implement regular, objective, metric-driven feedback structures to compensate for his low self-evaluation, ensuring his innovative pursuits remain aligned with organizational strategy without relying on his internal self-correction.
- Deploy him as an autonomous subject matter expert or independent project lead rather than a traditional people manager, effectively bypassing his low command trait while capitalizing on his high independence.
