Facing especially wicked problems, social sector organizations are searching for powerful new methods to understand and address them. Design Thinking for the Greater Good goes in depth on both the how of using new tools and the why. As a way to reframe problems, ideate solutions, and iterate toward better answers, design thinking is already well established in the commercial world. Through ten stories of struggles and successes in fields such as health care, education, agriculture, transportation, social services, and security, the authors show how collaborative creativity can shake up even the most entrenched bureaucracies-and provide a practical roadmap for readers to implement these tools.The design thinkers Jeanne Liedtka, Randy Salzman, and Daisy Azer explore how major agencies like the Department of Health and Human Services and the Transportation and Security Administration in the United States, as well as organizations in Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, have instituted principles of design thinking. In each case, these groups have used the tools of design thinking to reduce risk, manage change, use resources more effectively, bridge the communication gap between parties, and manage the competing demands of diverse stakeholders. Along the way, they have improved the quality of their products and enhanced the experiences of those they serve. These strategies are accessible to analytical and creative types alike, and their benefits extend throughout an organization. This book will help today's leaders and thinkers implement these practices in their own pursuit of creative solutions that are both innovative and achievable.

Breinwetenschappers zijn het er stilaan over eens dat de vrije wil niet bestaat. Onze bewuste beslissingen zijn de uitkomst van onbewuste processen waarover we geen ultieme controle hebben. De idee dat een bewust ¿ik¿ aan de knoppen zit, is een illusie. Wat zijn de filosofische gevolgen van een onvrije wil?Rationeel beschouwd zijn we niet langer verantwoordelijk voor, of schuldig aan, wat we doen of denken. Verantwoordelijkheid vereist immers een vrije wil ¿ die niet bestaat. Maar zonder schuld verliest het recht zijn klassieke grondslag en zonder blaam kun je niemand iets kwalijk nemen. We zitten met een filosofische waarheid die niet rijmt met onze alledaagse intuïties en emoties.Toch is een leven met een onvrije wil niet zonder perspectief. Op het persoonlijke vlak kan verwijtloos leven bevrijdend werken en op het maatschappelijke vlak dringt schuldloos recht nu al onze samenleving binnen. Professionals beschouwen criminelen als risicoburgers en bestuurders zoeken hun heil bij preventie die geen schuld vereist.Een leven zonder verantwoordelijkheid hoeft geen bedreiging voor de toekomst te vormen. Leven zonder schuld kan zelfs een uitdaging zijn. Met actuele voorbeelden als de ontuchtzaken in de katholieke kerk en kritiek op de prestatiemaatschappij laat Jan Verplaetse zien wat die uitdaging inhoudt.Jan Verplaetse is filosoof en neurowetenschapper. Hij doceert moraalfilosofie aan de faculteit Rechtsgeleerdheid van de Universiteit Gent. Zijn boek Het morele instinct (2008) werd bekroond met de NWO Eureka Boekenprijs.

The extraordinary shift in conduct and orientation--among companies, governments, and individuals--generated by financialization.The hegemony of finance compels a new orientation for everyone and everything: companies care more about the moods of their shareholders than about longstanding commercial success; governments subordinate citizen welfare to appeasing creditors; and individuals are concerned less with immediate income from labor than with appreciation of their capital goods, skills, connections, and reputations. In this book, in clear and compelling prose, Michel Feher explains the extraordinary shift in conduct and orientation generated by financialization.That firms, states, and people depend more on their ratings than on the product of their activities also changes how capitalism is resisted. For activists, the focus of grievances shifts from the extraction of profit to the conditions under which financial institutions allocate credit. While the exploitation of employees by their employers has hardly been curbed, the power of investors to select investees--to decide who and what is deemed creditworthy--has become a new site of social struggle. Above all, Feher articulates the new political resistances and aspirations that investees draw from their rated agency.-publisher's description.
