Strategy Activation Canvas

The Strategy Activation Canvas is the new standard for accelerating strategies – beginning where classical strategies end: with its activation. While many management and business canvases focus on developing a strategy the Strategy Activation Canvas helps leaders and decision-makers to bring strategies to life. This book demonstrates for the first time how entire organizations can be “activated”: how people can not only perceive and implement a new strategy but how entire organizations can be heavily involved in its making how strategies are made visible and experienced and how people can play an active and sustaining role throughout bringing a strategy to life. With their decades of experience in large scale organizations Thiessen and Wreschniok pair their knowledge with case studies from Allianz Baloise E. ON Hamburg Commercial Bank Microsoft NORD/LB Swisscom or Swiss Re organizations led by leaders who have significantly accelerated the success and value of their strategies through strategy activation. This book is an essential resource for managers who have responsibility for strategic initiatives and transformation programs of any kind.

This provocative book is anchored on the insurgent and resurgent spirit of decolonization of the twenty-first century. The author calls upon Africa to turn over a new leaf in the domains of politics economy and knowledge as it frees itself from imperial global designs and global coloniality.

Disruptive leadership is a topic generating intense interest. Companies all over the world are trying to upend their industry through innovative products and services. Becoming a disruptive organization however is easier said than done. Even more difficult is being a company that continually disrupts.

Lennon and McCartney Painting with Sound

Lennon and McCartney: Painting with Sound explores the work of two of the most influential composers of the twentieth century. Five decades after the breakup of the Beatles the music of John Lennon and Paul McCartney continues to fascinate and inspire. Evidence suggests that their uniquely eclectic approach can be traced back to the Liverpool College of Art. Following on that idea this book explores the creative dialogue between John Lennon and Paul McCartney both with the Beatles and on their own that grew out of that early influence. The book is presented in three sections: I. Stretching the Canvas considers the Liverpool College of Art as the backdrop for John and Paul’s early collaborations with painter and musician Stuart Sutcliffe. This is followed by discussions of select works created by the Beatles between 1962-69. II. Extending the Space focuses on the long-distance creative dialogue between Lennon and McCartney as demonstrated in their respective solo recordings of the 1970s. III. New Colours considers the final works of the Lennon and McCartney creative dialogue as well as various McCartney solo projects released in the years that followed Lennon’s death in 1980. Here the focus is on Paul’s development as a painter its effect on his creativity and his subsequent efforts to establish the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts as a world-class arts conservatory. | Lennon and McCartney Painting with Sound

Sham Ruins A User's Guide

In the middle of the eigtheenth century a new fad found its way into the gardens of England's well-to-do: building fake Gothic ruins. Newly constructed castle towers and walls looked like they were already falling apart even on the first day of their creation. Made of stone plaster or even canvas these sham ruins are often considered an embarrassing blip in English architectural history. However Sham Ruins: A User's Guide expands the specific example of the sham ruin into a general principle to examine the way purposely broken objects can be used to both uncover old truths and invent new ones. Along with architecture work by Ivan Vladislavić Tom Stoppard Alain Mabanckou Aleksei Fedorchenko Michael Haneke and Sturtevant is used to develop this thesis as well as artifacts such as pre-torn jeans fake histories and broken screen apps. Using these examples one of the key questions the book raises is: what is it that sham ruins ruin? In other words if real ruins are ruins of what they actually are then sham ruins should be considered ruins of what they are not. Thus sham ruins are about imposing new meaning where such meaning does not and should not exist. They also can show how things we think are functioning well are actually already broken. Sham ruins do this and much more by being lies ruses and embarrassments. This is what gives them the power with which we can think about objects in new unintended ways. | Sham Ruins A User's Guide

Indonesia’s Foreign Policy and Grand Strategy in the 21st Century Rise of an Indo-Pacific Power

This book examines the changes in Indonesian foreign policy during the 21st century as it seeks to position itself as a great power in the Indo-Pacific region. The rise of 21st-century Indonesia is becoming a permanent fixture in both the domestic and global discourses. Though there has been an increasing level of discussion on Indonesia’s emerging power status there has been little discussion on how the country is debating and signalling its new-found status. This book combines the insights of both neo-classical realism and social identity theory to discuss a reset in an emerging Indonesia’s foreign policy during the 21st century while emphasizing domestic drivers and constraints of its international behaviour. There are three key organizing components of the book – emerging power status signalling and the Indo-Pacific region. The Indo-Pacific region constitutes a spatial framing of the book; the emerging power provides an analytical category to explain Indonesia’s changing international status; and status signalling explains multiple facets of international behaviour through which the country is projecting its new status. Though leaders are adding different styles and characteristics to the rising Indonesia narrative there are a few unmistakable overarching trends that highlight an increasing correlation between the country’s rising power and growing ambition in international behaviour. This book is built around four key signalling strategies of Indonesia as an emerging power – expanded regional canvas power projection leadership projection and quest for great power parity. They represent Indonesia’s growing desire for a status-consistent behaviour its response to the prevailing strategic uncertainty in the Indo-Pacific region and its attempt to advance its strategic interests. This book will be of much interest to students of South-East Asian politics strategic studies international diplomacy security studies and IR in general. | Indonesia’s Foreign Policy and Grand Strategy in the 21st Century Rise of an Indo-Pacific Power

The Logics of Healthcare The Professional’s Guide to Health Systems Science

Most of the current literature on healthcare operations management is focused on importing principles and methods from manufacturing. The evidence of success is scattered and nowhere near what has been achieved in other industries. This book develops the idea that the logic of production and production systems in healthcare is significantly different. A line of thing that acknowledges the ingenious characteristics of health service production is developed. This book builds on a managerial segmentation of healthcare based on fundamental demand-supply constellations. Demand can be classified with the variables urgency severity and randomness. Supply is constrained by medical technology (accuracy of diagnostics efficacy of therapies) patient health behavior (co-creation of health) and resource availability. Out of this emerge seven demand-supply-based operational types (DSO): prevention emergencies one-visit electives cure care and projects. Each of these have distinct managerial characteristics such as time-perspective level of co-creation value proposition revenue structure productivity and other key performance indicators (KPI). The DSOs can be envisioned as platforms upon which clinical modules are attached. For example any Emergency Department (ED) must be managed to deal with prioritization time-windows agitated patients the necessity to save and stabilize and variability in demand. Specific clinical assets and skill-sets are required for say massive trauma strokes cardiac events or poisoning. While representing different specialties of clinical medicine they when applied in the emergency – context must conform to the demand-supply-based operating logic. A basic assumption in this book is that the perceived complexity of healthcare arises from the conflicting demands of the DSO and the clinical realms. The seven DSOs can neatly be juxtaposed on the much-used Business Model Canvas (BMC) which postulates the business model elements as value proposition; customer segments channels and relations; key activities resources and partners; the cost structure; and the revenue model. | The Logics of Healthcare The Professional’s Guide to Health Systems Science

Plants People and Culture The Science of Ethnobotany

Is it possible that plants have shaped the very trajectory of human cultures? Using riveting stories of fieldwork in remote villages two of the world’s leading ethnobotanists argue that our past and our future are deeply intertwined with plants. Creating massive sea craft from plants indigenous shipwrights spurred the navigation of the world’s oceans. Today indigenous agricultural innovations continue to feed clothe and heal the world’s population. One out of four prescription drugs for example were discovered from plants used by traditional healers. Objects as common as baskets for winnowing or wooden boxes to store feathers were ornamented with traditional designs demonstrating the human ability to understand our environment and to perceive the cosmos. Throughout the world the human body has been used as the ultimate canvas for plant-based adornment as well as indelible design using tattoo inks. Plants also garnered religious significance both as offerings to the gods and as a doorway into the other world. Indigenous claims that plants themselves are sacred is leading to a startling reformulation of conservation. The authors argue that conservation goals can best be achieved by learning from rather than opposing indigenous peoples and their beliefs. KEY FEATURES • An engrossing narrative that invites the reader to personally engage with the relationship between plants people and culture • Full-color illustrations throughout—including many original photographs captured by the authors during fieldwork • New to this edition—Plants That Harm a chapter that examines the dangers of poisonous plants and the promise that their study holds for novel treatments for some of our most serious diseases including Alzheimer’s and substance addiction • Additional readings at the end of each chapter to encourage further exploration • Boxed features on selected topics that offer further insight • Provocative questions to facilitate group discussion Designed for the college classroom as well as for lay readers this update of Plants People and Culture entices the reader with firsthand stories of fieldwork spectacular illustrations and a deep respect for both indigenous peoples and the earth’s natural heritage. | Plants People and Culture The Science of Ethnobotany
