“…She advocates that we need to investigate the places in which we inhabit in detail and analyze how local places permeate management practices in direct and indirect ways. Spencer (2007) calls this an ecocentric positioning:…”

“…The immersion in place has direct relevance for sustainable education. For instance, Spencer (2007) argues that people need to understand their ecological location in addition to social location in order to learn how to manage more sustainably. Educational approaches that incorporate a deep awareness of "both where human beings are located within human society and within the broader biotic community" can enrich our practices.…”

“…Educational approaches that incorporate a deep awareness of "both where human beings are located within human society and within the broader biotic community" can enrich our practices. Although social location is an anthropocentric term, ecological location introduces a more ecocentric understanding of human location (Spencer, 2007). FJ is an example of a manager who has extensive intergenerational and firsthand experiential knowledge of his ecological location.…”

“…FJ's approach to education is deeply embedded in the local ecology in which he was born, raised, and believes himself to be an intrinsic part of. His approach to education is tied directly to his ecological location (Spencer, 2007)-the bush is his classroom and his place of work.

Educational approaches addressing environmental sustainability are of growing interest to management educators. The James Bay Cree in Canada offer a novel and ecologically embedded approach to management education as an inspiring template for integrating a deep sense-of-place within management education. The authors describe the Cree approach as “managing outside”; literally managing out of doors on (and with) the land. They develop their ideas collaboratively with FJ, a Cree tallyman (a senior hunter and leader of his family’s hunting territory). FJ challenges modern managers and students interested in sustainability to learn how to manage and educate outside, to relocate and relate their management education to specific local places by working collaboratively with Indigenous Peoples in a participatory manner.
