## Tactical Playbook
- Decentralize granular involvement to empower junior leads, actively mitigating the 'yes man' culture and inviting critical internal feedback without fear of overriding his legendary status.
- Leverage his calculated public presence by implementing a broader executive communication strategy that highlights team-wide artistic contributions, shifting the weight of ambitious marketing promises off his sole persona.
- Reinforce his pragmatic triage framework ('We can do anything, but we can't do everything') to effectively bridge the gap between the massive creative scope of cross-media IP and strict operational timelines.
