You work with the employee around how much of any of the following are appropriate: choice freedom, independence, space, and/or spontaneity. You help them grow. If the need can't be met because of mental issues, that is different.

Should I actively make decisions that increase the chance of the entire company failing, if it helps one individual feel more ownership? I will not do that.
