Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the case of IÉSEG School of Management, Lille and Paris and its attempt to move from being an internationally recognized, triple-accredited school to a truly intercultural one. By focusing on the deep-visioning process that allowed the school to redefine its vision, mission and values, the paper will highlight the central role that has been given to the ethical, CSR and intercultural aspects of education and management. Concrete examples of the courses, projects and extra-curricular activities are given to illustrate how the school tries to reach its objectives. It is hoped the paper might provide insights that other schools might like to explore in the light of their own contexts in relation to internationalization and the development of the teaching of ethics and CSR
