THIS,
Life is about dominance, If someone can make their voice heard in a large group of people they are automatically deemed "The Leader."
If you can dominate others personalities in a work place then people will always respect you and go to you for decisions even if you have no clue whats going on.
And if you can dominate a relationship than that person will most likely be feeding from your hand. Sadly shit seems to happen like this more times than not
