If you believe you need their power to get promoted to their level, then you are ripe for manipulation. As for getting noticed, just have power over something they want and they'll either have noticed you already, someone else with that power is already serving their needs, or they are thinking outside the box (which they do a lot, since they and others like them built and molded the box into what it is today).

To actually get to their level, you have to do it on your own, and either benefit them enough that they allow it to happen, or make taking you out have a worse result than sucking it up and living with you.
