TIAS Business School - Never Stop Asking
Onderwijs & Kennis
MKB
We help TIAS reposition and structurally embed a distinctive brand identity, based on a shared mentality of curiosity, reflection and action.
In an international landscape of established business schools, TIAS has a clear ambition: evolve from an academic institute into an independent business school with international relevance, without compromising academic quality. That does not require broadcasting harder but choosing sharply what the school stands for.
The visible question is visibility and differentiation. Underneath sits a tension many business schools recognize: how do you combine academic depth with entrepreneurship, action and societal impact, without collapsing into either extreme? The answer is not programs or reputation alone, but the way of thinking you consistently express.
The core insight is that differentiation comes from mentality. Not from what you teach, but from how you look, ask and act. From that insight, we help TIAS make this way of thinking explicit and choose a positioning that does not lean on tradition, but on attitude.
This leads to the organizing idea Never Stop Asking. A shared mindset that connects academic curiosity, critical reflection and action orientation. Never settling for the first answer. Continuing to ask. About data, assumptions, systems and yourself. Not to hesitate, but to act better.
Never Stop Asking functions as the strategic framework for all brand choices. It positions TIAS as a business school that combines academic depth with entrepreneurship and invites students, faculty and alumni to continuously expect more of themselves and of the world around them. The idea guides how TIAS presents itself, collaborates and engages with societal questions.
We guide the translation of this framework into name, identity, communication strategy and design. In parallel, we facilitate the process through which the organization collectively owns the idea, so Never Stop Asking is not from marketing, but from the whole school.
Embedding is not in campaigns, but in consistent use and behavior. Never Stop Asking becomes visible in identity and communication, but above all in education, research, leadership and collaboration. This creates an ecosystem in which the brand is not only told but lived daily by the people who carry it.
