Viva Insights: 4-week PoC

Viva Insights provides privacy-protected insights and actionable recommendations that help everyone in the organization work smarter and achieve balance. ​ ​ It helps along two dimensions – 1. Understand how you work and 2. Take action in the flow of your work. All of these are surfaced over multiple surfaces – From the Viva Insights Teams App (right next to your collaboration hub) to daily briefing emails to web dashboards. ​

Leader insights empower business leaders to address critical questions about organizational resiliency and work culture with insight into how work impacts their people and their business. It helps leaders know where to take steps to protect employee wellbeing and presents an opportunity to understand where a change in process could improve business outcomes.​ ​ Manager insights provide much-needed visibility into work patterns that can lead to burnout and stress – such as regular after-hours work, meeting overload, or too little focus time – so that managers can help their teams strike a balance between productivity and wellbeing. We make it easy for managers to understand current team norms and take action to create positive change. ​ ​ Individuals receive personal insights visible only to them to help identify opportunities to change how they work so they can do their best work. Actionable recommendations, such as recharging with a quick mental break, protecting time for focused work, and mindfully disconnecting after-hours, make it easier to prioritize wellbeing and boost productivity.​ ​ Analysts use advanced tools to translate the data and business context in Workplace Analytics into insights that answer critical business questions. Analysts help leaders unlock deeper insights by accessing, exploring and visualizing data to generate insights and then telling stories to enable critical business decisions.​ ​ IT Leaders and administrators are responsible for using technology to enable companies to be effective and efficient.  IT Leader and Administrator provide the business with critical information and manage Workplace Analytics and MyAnalytics efficiently and in accordance with company policies and procedures.​
