Häufig gestellte Fragen

Häufige Fragen zu dieser Folie und dem zugrunde liegenden Präsentationsinhalt.

What does the Roland Berger Trend Compendium 2050 People & Society report cover?

It is Megatrend 1 of Roland Berger's Trend Compendium 2050, which in this edition lists seven megatrends. It covers four subtrends: population (growth, aging, urbanization), migration (international, forced and climate migration, policy, AI), education and labor (attainment, earnings, skills shortages, generative AI and productivity), and values and culture (human rights, SDGs, freedom, religion, gender parity, DEI). It ends with corporate action recommendations.

What are the key findings on population to 2050?

World population grows from 8.2 billion in 2025 to 9.6 billion in 2050 and peaks at 10.29 billion in 2086. People aged 65+ double from 857 million to 1.6 billion, the global median age rises 5.2 years to 36.1, Africa adds roughly one billion people (+60%), and nearly a third of growth comes from India, Nigeria and Pakistan. The urban share rises from 58% to 67%.

What does it say about migration, work and AI?

There were 304 million international migrants in 2024 (+21.6% since 2015), and 82.2 million internally displaced people in 2025. Remittances to low- and middle-income countries hit a record USD 683 billion in 2024. Under a pessimistic World Bank scenario, up to 216 million people could become internal climate migrants by 2050. On work, studies cited project AI could add up to about 1.3 percentage points a year to US productivity growth under rapid adoption. After ChatGPT, US postings for automation-prone jobs fell 13% while augmentation-prone jobs rose 20%.

Who publishes the Trend Compendium and how often is it updated?

It is compiled by the Roland Berger Institute, the think tank of the strategy consultancy Roland Berger. The Trend Compendium is a long-running series that Roland Berger updates periodically, one volume per megatrend. This People & Society volume is the 2026 Edition, with data through 2025-2026. It deliberately uses public sources such as the UN, OECD, ILO and WEF so the analysis can be checked.

Why is this deck a good example of consulting slide design?

Almost every page uses an action title, a full-sentence headline that states the takeaway, often in two parts joined by a dash. Below it sit one or two sourced charts and a right-hand commentary column. A persistent left rail shows where you are among subtrends 1.1-1.4. Footnotes and sources sit at the bottom of every chart, and the deck closes with impact-and-action pages. It is a useful model for chart-heavy strategy and research decks.

How can I create a similar consulting-style trend report deck?

Start from a document, report or outline. 2Slides can turn it into slides with action titles, chart layouts and an executive summary flow. You can then refine each page around one message and one supporting visual, the way this Roland Berger deck does.

Where can I find the original Roland Berger report?

The original PDF is published by Roland Berger at rolandberger.com (see the source link on this page). The other megatrend volumes of the Trend Compendium 2050 are available from Roland Berger's publications pages.

How many pages is the deck and how is it structured?

It has 79 pages. There is an introduction (pages 1-4), Population (5-21), Migration (22-35), Education & Labor (36-53), Values & Culture (54-72), corporate actions (73-75), then sources, authors and credits (76-79).
