Mission, Vision and Values
Mission
TBS trains future international decision-makers who are collaborative, agile and responsible.
- Collaborative, through the prioritising of management practices based on collective intelligence.
- Agile, through the global integration of learning related to artificial intelligence and its variations (big data, machine learning, etc) in order to shed light on the resulting new decision-making processes.
- Responsible, through investment in Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development in order to promote the critical distance needed in relation to decision-making impact.

Values
TBS is a triply accredited business school (AACSB, EQUIS et AMBA) and has been so for quite a number of years. The school has successfully obtained its EQUI re-accreditation 3 times in a row, each time for a 5-year period. TBS has also obtained, for all diplomas and degrees, the validation of the French Ministery of Higher Education. And last but not least, our student selection at the start of the program, the academic quality of our professors and the constant progress of the TBS research production (publications in Peer Reviewed Journals) vouches for the academic excellence of our business school.
Openness implies curiosity, tolerance, critical thinking, a demanding spirit and mutual enrichment. In all courses and programs, TBS encourages the respect of opinions, singular career paths and choices, contradictory debates and a multiplicity of experiences, through charity or student associations, international tracks, multi-campus projects, double degrees, conferences,…
TBS actively encourages students to commit to causes, meet challenges, leave the beaten track and question conventional ideas or conformity. We help them take risks and teach critical thinking, with courage but without arrogance. The range of possibilities we offer to aspiring entrepreneurs vouches for our commitment to this value.
TBS trains managers to successfully lead organizations in a world that’s increasingly complex and uncertain. The multitude of projects students are taking on and the commitment they have to show to professors, companies and other students help them on track. Student agility is further stimulated via innovating teaching methods to further reinforce personal implication and commitment.
TBS uses the notion of responsibility in all its pedagogical methods and launches multiple actions to create student awareness for CSR and sustainable development. TBS has hired a specific coordinator to animate all activities that revolve around these aspects. We’ve also established an academic CSR working group, which unites the heads of our Academic Departments as well as expert professors to define teaching topics and projects in this area. We’ve also created a CSR/SD commitee, which meets up regularly.
