[New Release] Election Management View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] The presidential election is just six months away. Each candidate's campaign is now at a stage where they must carefully consider what policies to present and what promotional strategies are necessary to secure the next president's seat. As every word and step of the candidate becomes crucial, election strategies have truly become a key factor determining the outcome.


This book is a strategic guide for candidates and their aides who are struggling ahead of the election. The author explains that it is now necessary to apply scientific techniques such as "management consulting" to elections. From the perspective that politicians are no different from CEOs who lead organizations, it is possible to maximize the efficient use of resources to increase the chances of winning. The author presents concrete methodologies covering essential areas for candidates running for office, including establishing political vision, strategic planning, political affairs planning, and policy planning.


Furthermore, looking at recent changes in the election environment, there is a general trend of organizational elections declining and the importance of promotional battles increasing. Accordingly, the author proposes the "One Source Multi-use" approach. Instead of mobilizing many personnel as in the past, it is necessary to efficiently utilize a minimal number of staff.



Moreover, the book focuses on providing solutions to problems candidates may face. Should the focus be on the primary election or the general election? How to respond to negative attacks? In addition, it offers practical tips applicable in reality, such as how to write speeches, prepare for TV debates, and draft city administration performance plans and legislative activity plans.
