Where he and I differ is that he's willing to bet harder on the future (Ni) and is less moved by profitability (Te) than I am.
Huang is either LIE-0 or LIE-Ni, and if you want to know more about how an LIE will run a company (in addition to what he said), read Up the Organization by Robert Townsend. The book is out of print, but it's available on eBay. In my opinion, it's the best book ever written on running a business.
It was written in the '60's and it does show some assumptions about drinking and women which were normal for that time, but which are not normal now.
Townsend's book adds to what Huang said, but then, his book is longer that that interview. Undoubtedly, Huang would agree with everything in Townsend's book, because that book describes the way that smart, experienced LIEs think about organizations.
Post Script
I read some previous posts which said Huang couldn't be LIE. And yet, I agree completely with everything he said.
If you believe in VI, he looks a lot like my ILI-Te investment counselor, but Huang runs a company. He's boyish and he said he used to look like an introvert. I did, too, until I was thirty. He wears all black, and I do, too. I mean, my ESI-Se interior decorator said that black T's are my uniform.
That black leather jacket is Se-HA. I have one almost exactly like it, but mine is dark brown.
He said that he believes in a flat hierarchy. I do, too. It's more democratic.
He said that he constantly takes time to train the people he works with. What he's really doing is getting them on-board with his own vision, which is absolutely necessary if you want the company to both prosper and go in the direction you want it to go in.
He said that no job is beneath him. I will sweep the floors and clean grease off the machines if that needs to be done.
He said that every day is the same, whether the stock price is up or down, because he's not living in the present. He's living in Future (Ni) Profits (Te).
And he's constantly looking for ways to help society, although, as an LIE-Te, I don't place the same emphasis on that as I do on making a profit.
He's LIE and not ILI because he's extroverted and he keeps the big picture always in front of him, and resists doing deep, deep dives into the details.
