Lean Thinking has its roots in ideas developed for process improvement in the 1900s. Systems Thinking was discussed as far back as the 1950s. Blockchain technology is based on work that started in the 1990s and was implemented soon after Satoshi Nakamoto published his Bitcoin whitepaper in 2009. Together, these three components -- Lean, Blockchain, and Systems Thinking provide a revolutionary force in process management efficiency and effectiveness.This book provides a perspective on the advantages of blockchain technology that is rarely covered in business books as well as specialist blockchain-related content. The focus has been the use of Cryptocurrencies as a store of financial value and as an instrument of speculation, like the stock market. This book shows that blockchain, together with Lean and Systems thinking can provide multiple advantages for societies and the environment. It can be used effectively to meet sustainable development goals (SDGs).Readers will appreciate that blockchain within Lean practices and Systems Thinking opens up opportunities for fundamental organizational transformation, improved strategic decision-making, increased interoperability, and a fairer, more sustainable, and less wasteful world. This book clarifies how the integration of blockchain technology as an organizational concept integrates Lean principles and Systems Thinking. This brings a transformative shift in process design, increasing productivity while minimizing waste across sectors such as industry, public services, governance, supply chains, and social frameworks.

The term 'managerialism' is widely used not only in the world of business and government and this book details the theory behind the illusive idea. It distinguishes between management and managerialism and highlights the two groups pushing managerialism, namely corporate apparatchiks and the apostles of managerialism, and outlines twelve key ideas shaping managerialism. These twelve ideas range from profits to ideology, from economic growth and markets to business ethics and corporate social responsibility, from quantification to dehumanisation, from exploitation to short-termism, environmentalism, and homogenisation. Ultimately, this research volume illuminates the pathologies of managerialism and its impact on society, business, government, and on the defining issue of our time: global warming. The objective of this book is to move simply beyond using the term 'managerialism' by creating a better understanding of it. This means exploring the theory behind managerialism as well as the ideologies that define it. It will be of value to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students looking to gain a deeper understanding of managerialism and how managerialism can be overcome, with particular interest to those in the fields of critical management studies, leadership, corporate governance, and organizational studies.

This Element examines the recent history of nonprofit sector-wide advocacy at the federal level, focusing on work done by national nonprofit infrastructure organizations and national charities, to advocate on issues, such as tax incentives for charitable giving, that affect a broad range of nonprofits. The Element draws on interviews with thirty-nine national and state nonprofit leaders and federal policymakers as well as published papers and journalistic accounts. It finds that many policymakers are only weakly supportive of the nonprofit sector. In the end, this Element points to an uneasy, shifting balance in nonprofit sector advocacy between informal, decentralized, issue-based coalitions focused on short-term, if vital, legislative victories, on one hand, and the public good mandate embraced by some sector-wide advocates, which attends to longer time horizons and a broad conception of the defense of civil society, on the other. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
