Summary
COVID-19 Pandemic has bought devastating effects to businesses across the globe (Buheji & Buheji, 2020). Based on the review and appraisal of scholarly work on handling crisis and related issues, we outlined that employee coaching have had been used across organizations to help guide and facilitate employees during times of crisis. Since employees and organizations globally are facing a severe crisis due to the recent COVID-19 Pandemic (Qiu et al, 2020; Darwish et al, 2020; Rehman et al, 2020), we propose that coaching can proactively help in resolving many work-related issues. Organizations can actively help and facilitate their employees to overcome issues they are currently experiencing from work or personal life due to the COVID-19 crisis. Buheji and Buheji (2020) indicated that coaching alongside training could help cope with the changing demands and situation during and after the COVID19 crisis
