Mas, I think Phya did a good job of explaining the differences here
You’ve been using IG for a bit now and I think you should try the A314. As far as how to work with it, just be the best “yourself” you can be. Stand tall, smile easily but not goofy. I normally wear 3 spays of IG.
I’m not sure what you have in mind when you say “mad respect”. People won’t be bowing and scraping but they tend to look to you to be the leader. You have to be prepared to take charge. If you do that effectively you’ll find people are quite happy to let you.
