AntiSocial one, so your premise is that NFs do not function well in a business environment working with NTs because they take things too personally? So I'm supposed to be the representative of all NFs and say that they do not take things too personally and that they do well in business and get along famously with NTs? That sounds like a management issue in your workplace. I can only speak for myself from my own experience, as I lack detailed data about how NTs and NFs work together.
All I can tell you, AntiSocial one, is that I worked in an IT department for 8 years, and everybody in my department hated each other. The network group was the elite mandarin group, and they would not work as a team with the rest of us. The guys responsible for fixing the PCs were always running their butts off. They could not go to the vending machine or the bathroom without being bugged by ten users at once. The help desk functioned like little more than glorified receptionists and would not ask questions and would enter tickets that did not make any sense at all. The clerical people were always in the middle of drama and spent their time making life hard for the guys responsible for fixing the PCs. The managers avoided problems. The programmers were okay. They just sat there quietly working on their programs. The consultants and contractors were arrogant and spoiled.
AntiSocial one, I had a hard time there at first, but I do not think that any of the people giving me grief were NTs, except maybe one - but if so, then he was not a mature NT. The trouble I had was that I kept being thrown to the lions with no training and I kept being given the messes of others to clean up. I had many users that I had to support, and they drove me crazy many times, but I got used to it, and I got used to being calm and solution-oriented. So all I can say is that I as an NF, despite being very sensitive by nature and being an easy cryer as a child, was able to support users and troubleshoot their issues and provide them with good customer service while working with a lot of difficult people who did not get along with each other.
Was it stressful for me? Yes, but I had coping mechanisms. One way I coped was to accept things without tolerating them. Huh? What does that mean? Well, what it means is that you can often make something stupid have a smart result if you approach it creatively. For example, as the intranet webmaster, I had always wanted to redesign the intranet, but it was never a priority for any of my managers. Well, a user put in a request to have the intranet security tightened up. So I used that as an excuse to rewrite the whole intranet in ASP.NET and redesign the whole thing to bring it up to modern web standards. Then the user who submitted the request ended up saying he did not need it after all. But I was not displeased. I had gotten what I wanted. And in the process, I had also benefited the business, too.
Did I get attached to certain things? Yes, I did, but you know what? When my feelings corresponded with a business need, I was capable of working feverishly. Plenty of times business needs did not coincide with my feelings. At these times I would still usually find some way to get something out of it. That is the whole way I got into my line of work in the first place. I found myself in a situation that I did not like and then I figured out what I could get out of it. It was win-win for me and the business.
The point of this personal narrative is that feelings and attitudes can bring creativity to business and benefit the business while leading to greater employee productivity. It all depends on the way that the feelings and attitudes are harnessed. What it takes is opportunism and flexibility on the part of the employee. It is possible for them to figure out how to make their situation work both for them and for the business.
