Digital Management Handbook & IDEASCANNER

The new “Praxishandbuch Digitales Management” published by Springer Gabler brings together the current state of the art on topics such as artificial intelligence, Web3 technologies and digital business models for companies. It targets executives who want to align their organisations consistently with digital growth, customer value and sustainable competitiveness.

Within this handbook, IDEASCANNER contributes a dedicated chapter demonstrating how data-driven business model assessment can improve the quality of innovation decisions. As a result, IDEASCANNER extends the management and transformation approaches presented in the book with a measurable methodology for identifying and prioritising the most promising ideas.

Podcast on the book launch

To complement the publication, a podcast has been released in which editors and experts discuss the key levers of digital management. The latest podcast episode focuses on IDEASCANNER and explains how business ideas can be compared within minutes and how growth opportunities emerge from a structured analysis.

The episode addresses typical questions from practice and academia: how to manage innovation portfolios more objectively, how to uncover blind spots in a business model and how structured assessments support boards, advisory councils and investors. The discussion is particularly relevant for mid-sized companies looking to make their digital management decisions more data-driven.

Value for decision-makers

For CEOs, board members, advisory board members and innovation teams, the combination of handbook chapter and podcast provides a highly practical entry point into data-driven digital management. IDEASCANNER helps to systematically challenge existing business models, identify new digital revenue streams and base investment decisions on transparent criteria.

This approach is especially valuable for organisations facing succession, restructuring or major growth initiatives and in need of a solid basis for strategic decisions. By standardising the analysis, digital strategy becomes a continuous process with clearly measurable outcomes rather than a one-off project.

• Rapid assessment of existing and new business models using a structured set of criteria.
• Identification of digital growth levers, additional revenue pillars and potential scaling paths.

Organisations that combine the concepts from the “Praxishandbuch Digitales Management” with IDEASCANNER in practice increase transparency across their innovation portfolio and reduce time from idea to decision.
