## Tactical Playbook
- Define highly structured end-goals but grant complete execution autonomy. Given his low Compliance and high Independence, frame necessary operational boundaries as structural parameters rather than corporate rules to minimize friction and maximize his innovative output.
- Position him as an independent architect rather than a team developer. Due to his low Coaching trait, extract his innovative methodologies into standardized, structural playbooks for the organization to adopt, rather than expecting him to directly mentor personnel.
- Mandate rigid, pre-scheduled milestone reviews to compensate for his low Visibility. He will naturally avoid self-promotion and informal progress sharing, requiring you to extract updates through established systemic check-ins to ensure his independent innovations align with broader business objectives.
