Roland Berger’s People & Organization unit presents an AI‑driven solution to address the looming skills crisis, arguing that 60‑70% of jobs will change and 40% of today’s skills will be outdated by 2030. The firm’s methodology hinges on three steps: AI‑powered data analysis of labor‑market supply, formulation of a people strategy that defines workforce demand, and concrete implementation actions to transform the talent pool. Its engine scans more than 22 billion candidate profiles and 760 million job postings daily, generating three trillion data points across 110 countries and a library of 5,000 emerging technologies. Clients receive use‑case roadmaps such as automated strategic workforce planning, future‑skill competency mapping, and targeted reskilling. In one engagement, Roland Berger identified a 30% efficiency gain in white‑collar functions through AI and automation, and its algorithm can map client job data to a standard architecture in weeks rather than months. By aligning workforce supply with AI‑shaped demand, companies can lower operational costs, raise productivity, and secure a strategic advantage that increasingly depends on people rather than technology alone.
