Your description of Frank made me think of Steve Jobs. He was SO overbearing and controlling that the board of directors pretty much fired him from his own company! He went on to create NEXT computers (precursor to OSX operating system) and ran PIXAR. When he came back to Apple, their quality, ingenuity, and pps rose significantly.
If Frank really is as you say AND can back up that ego with talent, tenacity and brains, then Q could really become something big.
