## Tactical Playbook
- Assign outcomes rather than processes. Leverage his high initiative and independence by defining clear end-goals and establishing firm strategic guardrails instead of granular rules, which will mitigate his low compliance while maximizing his forward momentum.
- Communicate with extreme directness and focus strictly on ROI. Given his high assertiveness and low empathy, bypass emotional appeals or team-harmony arguments entirely; instead, reframe necessary interpersonal adjustments as critical bottom-line business risks.
- Anchor all performance feedback in objective indisputable data. Due to his low self-evaluation, he will naturally resist subjective critiques and avoid introspection, so any course corrections must be driven by hard metrics rather than personal observations.
