What if every 4 years you had to get elected to keep your job. And you had to get other people to fund your campaign. How would this motivate employees. How would different election processes have different motivational skews? What is the electing body, what are candidates judged by, are there parties and how influential are party lines? What is the org chart within the business, of the business within the market sector?
How would political parties translate to businesses.

What business sector should I choose. One where the task of the job has as little affect on the plot of the story. Accounting? Grisham did law.

Write in alice and wonderland, gogol, absurdist beaurocracy style.
