I think you should study how well such professional posturing helps groups that have it (civil engineers, lawyers, etc).
In my experience it’s a symbolic political power that management has effective ways of limiting.
Uhh... lawyers are doing quite well for themselves, aren't they?
The ones who own the firm do. They are the managers.
Also I think you mistook my comment for something about financial success. I am questioning how much power a lawyer has to invoke moral authority (unless they own the firm).
