Microsoft Viva is an employee experience platform that delivers insight, purpose, connection, and growth to empower employees and teams to be their best
With traditional office-based businesses becoming increasingly digital, industries large and small are doubling down on their efforts to support the digital employee experience. And for good reason, with research suggesting that companies who prioritise employee experience are 25% more profitable and twice as innovative as their competitors who don’t.
Viva Connections
Connections is the gateway to modern employee experience; helping people to connect from anywhere. It provides internal communicators with the ability to provide staff with a curated, personalised and company-branded experience. Connections surfaces news content, conversations (from sources like Yammer) and other relevant information right within Microsoft Teams.
Leveraging the power of SharePoint Online, Viva Connections provides a single-entry point for employee engagement and internal communications.
Viva Insights
Viva Insights provides employees with personalised recommendations and insights on how to be more productive by working smarter, not harder. It uses data from Outlook to provide individuals with tips on how to generate healthy and productive work habits such as booking focus time and scheduling regular breaks.
With more people working remotely, Viva Insights provides individuals and managers with recommended actions and tips to reduce the likelihood of burnout and introduces new personal wellbeing experiences, which are all delivered through Microsoft Teams.

With Viva, employees will be able to easily discover new training courses to keep updated with new technologies and with the one they are already using.
Viva Learning aggregates content from LinkedIn Learning, Microsoft Learn, your organisation’s own custom content, and trainings from leading content providers like Skillsoft, Coursera, Pluralsight, and edX.
Like the other Viva components, Viva Learning integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Teams, providing people with a central hub to discover, share and learn.
Viva Topics
Viva Topics gives time back to employees by showing them the content that matters most, without the need for custom search.
Viva Topics is like Wikipedia with AI superpowers! Allowing organisations to surface relevant and contextual information (such as files, sites and pages) from the Microsoft 365 ecosystem and third-party services, like ServiceNow and Salesforce.

Viva Goals
Viva Goals mission is to ensure everyone in the organisation is focused on their top priorities and clearly understand why their work matters through aligned goals.
By shifting focus as a team, from effort and activity to impact and outcomes, Viva Goals allows you to share progress and insights across the organisation, meaning you can focus on work that moves the business forward and stay agile at scale.
As with all Viva modules, by bringing Viva Goals into the flow of work on Teams, this will help employees reach their goals and drive meaningful results.
