How Microsoft Viva Drives Insights from Your Entire Team’s Knowledge

Employees today are compelled to have the ability to work remotely from wherever they are; presenting a need for a digital collaborative solution that will make it easier for them to connect. Enter: Microsoft Viva. Microsoft Viva is a collaborative employee-experience platform designed to improve both connection and culture.

What is Microsoft Viva?

Microsoft Viva is an employee experience platform, powered by Microsoft 365, that brings together communications, knowledge, learning, resources, and insights primarily through Microsoft Teams. Viva is comprised of four modules:  Viva Learning, Viva Insights, Viva Connections and Viva Topics. Utilizing this platform cultivates a culture that encourages individuals and teams to achieve their full potential.

Microsoft understands that many of the important components of an office are intangible. Especially with remote workers now being more plentiful, it’s on a company to create an atmosphere of excitement, energy, and leadership within a digital space. Through Microsoft Viva, employers gain deeper insights with their employees on an individualized level that may have been previously difficult to achieve.

Microsoft Viva Learning

Viva Learning is a centralized hub in Microsoft Teams that provides access to content libraries from multiple resources including any content your organization would like to add. This provides employees daily searchable content to access learning documentation needed to excel at their role.

Microsoft Viva Connections

Employees can stay connected and informed with their organization as if they were in a typical office setting using Viva Connections. They can all see the same information in real time, so they don’t feel like they’re falling behind. The first step toward establishing an unified work culture is to create a cohesive environment.

Microsoft Viva Insights

Employers and managers give health, balance, and wellbeing recommendations to their staff. Microsoft recognizes that employees who are well-motivated and healthy perform better. Managers can use Microsoft Viva Insights to see if their staff are prospering in their current environment or if they need additional resources. Employees will have a better work-life balance and, as a result, better results.

Microsoft Viva Topics

Your organization will find it easier to access information that is relevant to them if content and expertise are arranged by topic. All data is not only consolidated, but also searchable, allowing staff to discover information more quickly and ensuring that it is kept. If a corporation wants to develop a consistent corporate culture, it needs to have consolidated information. Companies can use Microsoft Viva Topics to establish their internal corporate identity, advancing their mission and value statements toward their ultimate goals. Employees may feel empowered to discuss and interact with these statements at the same time.

The Advantages of Microsoft Viva

Using Microsoft Viva, employees will be able to connect and communicate more effectively. Managers can better manage and motivate their personnel while executives can get a high-level view of the team’s performance.

Importantly, Microsoft Viva delivers a streamlined, all-in-one solution that puts all employees (in-office and remote) on the same footing. Even though people work in different locations, companies maintain their culture. It is possible to align team goals and achieve the company’s mission.

There are numerous unified collaboration and communication solutions available. Even so, they don’t provide a comprehensive strategy to team wellness and engagement. Microsoft Viva is a new approach to the flexible workplace from Microsoft.
