MICROSOFT IMPROVES VIVA HYBRID WORK SOLUTION

MICROSOFT announced additions and improvements to its hybrid work solution Microsoft Viva and the Employee Experience Platform which re-centers the most important part of any team; the people who make up your corporate team.

With this in mind, Microsoft is expanding its employee experience platform Microsoft Viva to help companies deliver an employee experience optimized for the way people now work.

“Thriving employees are what will give organizations a competitive advantage in today’s dynamic economic environment,” said Satya Nadella, Microsoft chairman and chief executive officer. “Today, we’re announcing new innovations across our employee experience platform Microsoft Viva to help leaders end productivity paranoia, rebuild social capital and re-recruit and re-energize their employees.”

The company announced several new and enhanced capabilities coming to Viva, including Viva Pulse, which will enable managers and team leads to seek regular and confidential feedback on their team’s experience.

Viva Amplify is a new app that will empower leaders and communicators to elevate their message and reach employees where they are with consistency and impact.

Answers in Viva will be a new capability that will use AI (artificial intelligence) to match employee questions to answers and experts across the organization.

People in Viva is a new capability that will use AI to create rich profile cards with details on an employee’s interests, knowledge and team goals.

Viva Engage fosters digital community building through conversations and self-expression tools with stories and storylines.

Viva Goals helps organizations align employee work to business outcomes.

Viva Sales, the first role-based experience app in the platform, will be generally available in October 2022. This app brings together a seller’s CRM with Microsoft 365 and teams to provide a more streamlined and AI-powered selling experience.

All these options will be available via a new home experience in Viva Connections, which will bring all the Viva apps together in one place, and updates to the Viva briefing email will provide more personalized productivity recommendations.
