Being an alpha is determined by one's level of participation in a group. More precisely, it pertains to assisting in the cultivation and sustenance of a cohesive group dynamic, hierarchical structure, and operational efficiency of the group. Prior to comprehending the concept of an alpha, it is essential to grasp some aspects of power's inherent nature. Specifically, the organization bestows power upon you. You only possess power when it is bestowed to you by others. However, there is a caveat attached to the power bestowed upon you by the organization - you must prioritize their needs. That is the agreement. You have additional power to attend to their needs. Should you breach this trust, the group will promptly revoke your authority. An excessive focus on personal gratification and a lack of effective guidance can ultimately result in being defeated by the others whom you once led.

Most of what you mentioned is accurate, however it is somewhat irrelevant to the main topic.
