Harness the power of collective knowledge with Viva Topics.
On average, it takes around 9 minutes to return to a fully focused state after a disruption. This context switching interrupts workflows and delays projects. You can make your processes more efficient by implementing Viva Topics, an AI-powered knowledge management system that sorts your information into topics and knowledge maps.
New starts can utilise Topics to quickly familiarise themselves with past projects and overcome blockers like company-specific acronyms. By hovering over the term, they can find a definition and link to the associated topic so they can start working on high-impact tasks quickly.
Viva Topics is strengthened with contributions from subject experts within the company. Boost motivation and enable collaborative learning in the apps people use daily such as Teams, SharePoint and Outlook.
Discover and share expertise through Answers in Viva.
Answers in Viva gives employees the ability to independently search for the answers they need, accessing people and knowledge from anywhere in the organisation. This is essential to bridge the gap between departments and locations and build an active digital network of knowledge experts.
When people view a Topics page and see a colleague’s name, they can reach out to them in Teams. Answers in Viva makes it easy to connect to people with the right expertise for new collaborations.
By adopting Viva, you’ll surface more relevant knowledge in-context so your people don’t need to leave what they’re doing to sift through unorganised files. Ensuring they have access to the most up-to-date, consistent information and minimising time lost due to miscommunication and errors.
Connect your people with your vision using Viva Goals.
34% of leaders lack the necessary tools to monitor goals and effectively keep their direct reports motivated and engaged. Goals provides end-to-end goal management by embedding the OKR framework into the employee experience. Helping you follow up on goals to ensure productivity and accountability.
Viva Goals connects your people to the wider organisation, their colleagues and business strategy. Unite your employees with a shared mission, allowing them to assess how they contribute to overarching goals through their daily work.
The Forrester 2023 State of Goal Setting Report found that 78% of employees confidently understand their personal goals but this drops to only 39% for company goals. It’s essential to clearly define goals and outcomes for maximum productivity. Goals increases your people’s sense of purpose and fulfilment in their role.

Companies with a strong learning and development strategy retain staff for an average of 5 years, compared to just 3 years when reskilling options are limited. Give your people the knowledge to be successful at what they do while re-energising them.
Learning is most meaningful when it targets individual needs. With Viva Learning you can create personalised learning pathways and tailor resources to their career goals.
Microsoft’s Work Trend Index Report found that 61% of employees are more engaged when learning initiatives are an integrated part of their workday. This is where Viva comes in – encouraging social learning in Teams and your intranet and making learning a core part of everyone’s job.
