Mmmmm - I've got a couple of "alpha" male staff ... and it's true that you have to manage them ... but they are very effective at what they do if you give them their head to do it.
I wouldn't swap them for the world, they provide balance to an otherwise technical team and I value the charisma and energy they bring to the workplace.
Of course in the workplace it's important to maintain appropriate boundaries and if they ever overstepped those I'd absolutely discipline them (no pun intended), but they're too valueable to "sack their ar$e".

Never make someone a priority, who makes you an option.
