Good managers who use MBWA effectively by making their presence felt, even if they aren’t present. Changing the pattern of your MBWA by changing the time, frequency, and route you take can create a consistently operating workforce. One might say if the MBWA route is too consistent, it can lead to employees only working hard when they know that you are making your daily walkby at 2pm.<\/p>\n
