Introduction
Successful organizations thrive on connection and engagement. In a world where businesses are regularly switching to a hybrid work strategy, keeping all employees in the loop with clear communication and relevant information is more important than ever. Microsoft Viva Connections, a Microsoft Teams app, is a personalized and interactive experience that brings everything an employee needs to stay connected to their organization into one central hub.
Viva Connections can be accessed:
- By employees in the office, in the field, or at home.
- Via desktop or mobile devices in the Microsoft Teams app.
Greater access to tasks, news, and resources allows everyone in the organization to feel like they're part of the greater whole. Viva Connections seamlessly integrates with your organization's communities, and encourages employees to connect and elicits a feeling of belonging—all while making it easier to accomplish high-impact tasks and access popular resources.
Instead of spending time switching between different apps and interfaces to access tasks and resources for daily job duties, Viva Connections brings all these tools into one personalized destination—saving time, boosting productivity, and connecting employees across the organization in the process.
Viva Connections combines the power of your SharePoint intranet with Microsoft Teams and other Microsoft 365 apps. It has three main components: Dashboard, Feed, and Resources.
- With the Dashboard, employees have a centralized location where they can interact with cards that help them access the most important content and tools needed for their roles.
- Each team member's Feed is personalized to viewer and displays dynamic content based on the SharePoint sites and Viva Engage communities that they follow.
- The Resources experience uses navigation elements from the SharePoint app bar to make it easy to access popular portals and tools from anywhere in Microsoft Teams.
