Who Can Use Viva Insights and Why
Whether your teams are remote or in-house, it is imperative to prevent burnout and ensure their long-term well-being. Microsoft Viva Insights enables people and organizations to succeed and perform by offering them data-driven recommendations to enhance their productivity and safety.
Here's what that means for the different stakeholders:
Insight for Leaders
For a leader, it is crucial to know their organization's work environment and well-being. Leader insight provides deep insights into the struggles and queries of teams and individuals. The more a leader has information, the more efficient policies a leader will make to boost employee morale and efficiency.
Viva insights for leaders provide recommendations to areas where improvement can be made to enhance business outcomes. Sometimes a change in plan and work pattern can be beneficial.
Leaders can identify unhealthy patterns that affect employees after their work hours, or they are getting overwhelmed by meetings and tasks. Leaders can create best practices to implement for employee welfare.
Insights for Managers
Insights for managers help them understand the employees and team members better. Work patterns are an essential aspect to consider for managers to reduce employee stress.
Another important objective of these insights is to create a work-life balance for your team members. A healthy work environment plays a crucial role in company growth.
A manager's role is also to address the challenges faced by their team members and provide them with solutions and employee flexibility.
Create an action plan to solve problems and be open to employees' recommendations. Through insights, managers can identify where their team members are isolated or abandoned to build communication for employee engagements.
Insight for Employees
Individuals with better mental health and work-life balance are more motivated and efficient. These insights help individuals stay connected and build strong relationships within their work environment.
Insights for Individuals help employees find practical recommendations that include prioritizing tasks, managing time, achieving deadlines, having one-on-one meetings and consultation, and information on shared documents, emails, and chats.
With insights promoting well-being, breaks, and meditation for employees, they will be more focused on work than ever.
