Since 2004, publications in various formats by international executives have been subsumed under the think: act brand of the management consultancy Roland Berger . The publications under the umbrella of think: act include magazines and information brochures as well as books .

think: act - the magazine

The think: act magazine itself is aimed directly at decision-makers in companies and thus has a clear B2B orientation. Until 2011, the magazine was published three to four times a year in English , German , Russian , Chinese and Polish . The circulation of around 20,000 copies is sent as a press release to leading top managers in 22 nations. Conceptually, the magazine is geared towards current trend topics from the management sector through its goal of "thought leadership".

The aim of the format is to maintain a high journalistic standard and let the Roland Berger brand take a back seat.

The corporate communications handbook lists think: act as a reference for B2B customer magazines.

The magazine with the name think: act received the Best of Corporate Publishing (BCP) Award in the “Financial Services / Real Estate / Consulting” industry group in 2005, 2006 and 2007 . Most recently, the magazine won the Mercury Award 2009 (Silver) and the Astrid Award 2010 (Honors) in the “Executive Magazine” category.

On September 27, 2011 it was announced that Axel Springer Verlag will take over the development of the think: act magazine with immediate effect. In future, the magazine will appear three times a year with a print run of 30,000 copies each in German and English. In addition to a further development in terms of content, the magazine is also being optically revised .
