    The purpose of this study is to find an appropriate strategy for local government innovation step by step. To achieve administrative innovation, we should consider the characteristics and situation of local administration.
   Specifically, we divide the process of local administrative innovation into three concrete steps: the innovation preparation phase, the innovation practice phase, and the innovation continuance phase, and adjust a strategy to drive each step.
   First, the innovation preparation phase presented strategies stating the importance of the chief executive's leadership and other strategies such as the adjustment of the innovation propulsion system, the establishment of a vision for innovation, and the constituent's capacity to promote the basis of innovation as a means to secure innovation power.
   Second, the innovation practice phase presented input elements of local administrative innovation such as innovation education through Action Learning, conversion elements like the policy quality control, and output elements such as promotion strategies related to the identification of subjects for innovation and the practice of innovation.
   Third, strategies for the innovation continuance phase are connected and presented by the introduction of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) along with the performance evaluation system and the introduction of the team system for a flexible organizational structure.
   Finally, we examined the resistance to change that appeared during the process of local administrative innovation. The failure of government innovation is caused by the failure to manage the resistance. Thus for government innovation to succeed, correct information provision, comprehensive participation of public officials and effective management of resistance is necessary.
