A 75% shot at never having to take goddamn orders, on the other hand, is something I'd do things I can't put in print for. That's what I'm aiming for. I don't want to be some despot or extortionist telling others what to do, nor do I want to be told what to do. I want to have the opportunity to lead, if others will follow, without entitled and artificially empowered jackasses (i.e. typical corporate management) getting in the way of that.
Also i belive, being able to take orders is very valuable to the team, even if you are the ultra master chief... Closed to not taking orders? Then you are starting with your left foot in being a leader...
Just my thoughts...
I don't mind taking direction, but traditional management turns me off.
