## Tactical Playbook
- Insulate their visionary 'seed' ideation from daily administrative bottlenecks by maintaining a robust secondary tier of senior partners capable of managing business delivery logic.
- When navigating project pushback or conflicts, frame necessary course corrections not as 'scaling back ambition' but as refinements to optimize the psychological impact and core 'human experience' of the design.
- Capitalize on their flat intellectual hierarchy by encouraging radical candor in collaborative reviews; utilize experiential, hands-on physical prototyping to constructively challenge their fundamental concepts.
