I've never really seen INTJs as being leaders. I am INTJ and would more consider myself not so much a follower, not so much a leader, but more someone who takes my own path not really caring if someone is following or if I am following someone else.

Ayn Rand is considered an example of INTJs. While she 'could' be considered a leader because she came up with some interesting concepts that several people follow, she did not really seek to rally people around it or actively try to lead them.

Thats funny. I went for a "leadership training" course and I was criticized for being an INTJ.

INTJs live in the world of ideas and strategic planning. They value intelligence, knowledge, and competence, and typically have high standards in these regards, which they continuously strive to fulfill.

With Introverted Intuition dominating their personality, INTJs focus their energy on observing the world, and generating ideas and possibilities. Their mind constantly gathers information and makes associations about it. They are tremendously insightful and usually are very quick to understand new ideas. However, their primary interest is not understanding a concept, but rather applying that concept in a useful way. Unlike the INTP, they do not follow an idea as far as they possibly can, seeking only to understand it fully. INTJs are driven to come to conclusions about ideas. Their need for closure and organization usually requires that they take some action.

INTJs are natural leaders, although they usually choose to remain in the background until they see a real need to take over the lead. [He might be back in crises]
