How do INTJs prefer orders be given by authority figures

As an INTJ, I’d argue that not all orders HAVE to be obeyed. If I think it’s irrational or reckless, I won’t follow it, even if it’s from an authority figure. I’m my own authority. And I’m not putting my name behind any decision that makes me look bad.

If someone wanted to have the best chance of asking me or another INTJ to follow an order, then the order should

  • make sense,
  • be given in a respectful manner, and
  • shouldn’t be anything that is a waste of time or resources.
  • If it’s practical and it
  • doesn’t have any negative effect to us, we’ll do it. Have no reason not to.
