whats the opposite of a drone?

Question

it says the definition of a drone is a male stingless bee, meaning hes a pussy, so is there a word for the opposite meaning of a drone??

Answer 1

Well, in human beings the word drone implies someone who is a follower who doesn't question why something is done. The opposite would be an independent thinker, a person who will question, suggest different ways, or be independent. Another word could be "maverick" which means someone who doesn't fear standing out, trying new things, being on the forefront of something new.
