Considering the Conservatives’ “lost majority”, should project managers run the election campaigns? For example, the four top staff of the “Stronger In” campaign, attained such high level positions, due to who they know. Project managers should run election campaigns, due to their three quality traits. These traits are clarity, reliance on numbers, and the ability to coordinate multiple groups of people. In conclusion, project managers provide better performance than those currently in charge. So far, recent campaigns were not optimal, therefore there is a necessity to declare more qualified managers for election campaigns.
