On May 16 at 3 p.m. ET, We Know Next conducted a lively and insightful #NextChat discussion on "Creating Generational Engagement with Reverse Mentoring" with Next Official Blogger, Microsoft's Ross Smith and his reverse mentor Prem Kumar.
Ross and Prem shared their experiences with reverse mentoring and explained how leaders should think differently about managing multiple age groups.
Reverse mentoring helps to remove stereotypes. It also increases employee engagement, trust and collaboration. As Ross tweeted, "It's all about exposure to different thinking, which helps spark creativity and innovation for all."
