Career & Management
Team motivation, big launches, brand campaigns — enormous energy unlocked. Leadership must stay sober and prevent the 'kill-by-praise' trap.
Psychology & Cognition
Enjoy enthusiasm but never submerge in it. When the environment is exuberant, reserve risk capital silently.
Decision Guidance
Mobilize energy with anthem and ceremony; install a core; act swiftly on the wave — but always with the stone-steady eye reading the next downturn.
