Abstract
Schools of business can benefit from adoption of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). A brief overview of GID is presented along with an example of showcasing how it can be presented in a business school. Benefits for business schools, their students, and faculty are discussed. A comprehensive approach for promoting such spatial thinking is presented. The goal is to empower faculty to adopt GIS for their research and teaching, producing a large number of business school graduates that can promote spatial thinking in their organizations.
