Nah, I've started asking for that kind of work in the hiring process but it's mostly doing what I can where I am. And it's not about power really, nor control; it's about not needing them; nudging things in the right direction almost without people noticing; to me, that's what people skills is all about. But of course the level of experience helps, because with that comes some respect.
