  • What does an organization look like that can survive disruption? How can we effectively develop and efficiently maintain it? Having published seven comprehensive studies about issues of corporate headquarters, this time Roland Berger consultants are discussing and developing hypotheses within a new and innovative online community.

Collaboration across borders is becoming crucial. For us at Roland Berger, this means testing a completely new set-up for our study about the future of corporate headquarters.

On the professional social media platform LinkedIn you will find our open community, emphasizing that we believe in the merits of knowledge sharing. We specialize in content development while we cherish exchange with top managers in the field. This community may change the way we work.

This year, we will involve our stakeholders' know-how right from the start. Therefore, we are kicking off our study online – gathering data in this community and sharing our insights as we proceed. How can your company

  • Incorporate an agile and quick operating model (structures, processes, collaboration) with a light footprint?
  • Adopt the perfect role for your headquarters?
  • Thrive in today's volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment?

We'd like you to share and debate your ideas, opinions and experience with other leaders and decision-makers inside and outside your peer group. The more lively our discussions, the more likely it is that we all gain valuable insights to take your organizations to the next level. Come and join our community.
