where itadaku is to receive, I think [itasu]/[itashimasu] is the opposite, ie a polite way of saying something I give to someone

ex#3167 It is possible to say 社長は、DCに手紙を弁護士に送って 欲しい or 貰いたい のでしょうか？ When DC is ranked higher in a company than the speak and the listener, it is desirable to use 頂きたい with respect.

社長 need not use any honorifics to make DC to do something for him. If DC wants 社長 to do that, it's a different story.DCから社長に頼んで弁護士に手紙を送って頂くようにしたい would be okay.

no, that phrase was DC asking the President what he wanted him to do. ie DC talking to the Prez.
dc
In that case, you have to use 貰いたい.
