New roles like Chief Digital Officers who orchestrate this transformation, and budgets for digital initiatives are on the rise. For enacting digital transformation, C-suite managers and their committees need novel management instruments. We propose a collection of concrete methods and tools, structured by constructs from activity theory and method engineering. Recent bestselling publications authored by academics use specific rather new designs such as visual, colorful, haptic hands-on books or card sets, and still are research grounded. Design patterns like these and user-research will provide requirements in creating two artifacts along Design Science Research: the “book” as content artifact, and a method-artifact for establishing an online authoring community.enconference paper
