The man does not respond well to anything other than praise and flattery. The kind of constructive criticism that most of us would be grateful for because it gives us the chance to correct a problem or error is anathema to him. I've known a few people like that, who would not EVER accept being told they were wrong about anything, and one quickly learns to avoid trying. It's like the old saying about how you shouldn't bother trying to teach a pig to sing, because it's a waste of your time and it annoys the pig.
He could walk out the door wearing 2 left shoes, with his pants on backwards, and I'll bet nobody in his household, or on his staff, would dream of telling him he needed to change.
