His name was regularly quoted among the potential “ministerable” during the first five -year term of Emmanuel Macron. When he has just celebrated his 40th anniversary, the general delegate of La République en Marche (LRM), Stanislas Guerini, is appointed Minister of Transformation and the Public Service. He succeeds Amélie de Montchalin, who obtained the portfolio of the ecological transition and the cohesion of the territories. “This ministry is the Ministry of Daily Life of the French. I want to put the questions of access and accessibility at the heart of my action” of public services, he declared during the passing ceremony, Friday May 20.

A form of consecration for the one who has endorsed, since 2018, the role of leader of the presidential party in the shadow of an Emmanuel Macron who has always overshadowed his majority. The latest LRM electoral setbacks in the 2020 municipal elections and then in the regional elections of June 2021 had helped to weaken it internally, without the latter losing the confidence of the Head of State. “I know very few people who would have had as much resistance as him at very difficult times of the first five -year term,” said number two of the presidential party, the LRM deputy of Essone Marie Guévenoux.

Ex-Strauss-Kahnien, a graduate of the HEC business school in 2006, Stanislas Guerini did not fully engage in politics in the fall of 2015, when walking! is still an emerging project. With Sibeth Ndiaye, Ismaël Emelien and Sylvain Fort, the former “M. Communication” of the Head of State, he develops the strategy that will lead Mr. Macron to the supreme function. Elected deputy of Paris in 2017, he made his start on the Pacte law in the National Assembly.

“Labor strength”

His trademark? “Benevolence”, “labor force” and “sense of listening”. Qualities as much rented in macronie and mocked by its detractors. Until the majority, some have criticized him for not using the balance of power, in particular to bring out an ideological corpus specific to the Republic on the move. “In this environment, it can sometimes happen that some people confuse kindness and weakness. Stanislas is extremely nice but certainly not weak,” insists M me Guévenoux.

He nevertheless gave in to the requests of an overhaul of the presidential party, renamed Renaissance in early May. “It is someone who makes the collective pass before his individuality and in politics, it is quite rare to be appreciated enough,” says Roland Lescure, spokesperson for LRM.
