Going to start you off with Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Managerialism
If you've ever heard of "publish or perish", than you've heard of the main outcome of managerialism applied to academia and research. There are many critiques, I won't mention them all. And if you hate bureaucracy, filling out all those endless forms as if your job is to fill out forms, that's because of managerialism. You're writing the inputs for that system to work. That goes for the healthcare system too, and for many others.
Managerialism is the "capitalist organization science". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_management
As managerialism changes the operating paradigm from producing scientific knowledge to "scoring points", there are long-term consequences that lead to the failure of the system. If you don't get the importance of a paradigm shift, read Donella Meadows.
