As a leader, you help people, and MBWA is one way to do so. Physically walking around actually helps in the development of creative ideas. We also remember what we see better than what we hear. Management by walking around has three major activities: listening, teaching, and facilitating. By listening, you find out what’s getting in the way or slowing employees down; by teaching, you coach to improve; and by facilitating, you remove the stumbling blocks preventing employees from improving performance. Feedback is critical to success.
