Review on Application of Reverse Mentoring during COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract

The aim of this review paper is to show the reverse mentoring process used during the COVID -19 pandemic to mitigate the drawbacks of the pandemic situation. The most important fact is that the higher spreading rate of Covid-19 has caused a broader impact on the attitude and behaviour of the global population. In response to this and as a prevention measure, almost all the governments have implemented different measures like social distance and travel restrictions. The changes occurring due to this pandemic situation have created a significant impact on people's behaviour and their work. Therefore, to overcome the situation and for the smooth functioning of day-to-day activities, people and organizations tend to use novel technology. Most sectors use reverse mentoring as a valuable tool to address issues in using technology. Further features and the benefits of reverse mentoring are discussed with the literature evidence. It discusses how reverse mentoring is used to mitigate gaps in education, health, business and others.
