That's the point. The point is that authority is only granted on an individual basis. I have given my boss authority over the creative projects I work on. I trust his creative opinion more than I do my own. Yet, there may be other people with professional authority over me that I do NOT give authority. I do NOT trust their creative opinions over my own, and therefore, their job title and personal feelings of authority over me are strictly symbolic, because I have not given it to them.
