What it is
Microsoft Viva: Viva Glint and Viva Insights Integration - Continuous employee engagement for leaders and managers with workplace metrics is a Microsoft 365 roadmap item published via Microsoft Release Communications. Current status: In development.
What it does
Stay connected to your team’s engagement with Viva Insights Workplace Metrics, available alongside your survey results in Viva Glint. Between survey cycles, leaders and managers can use these continuous, real-time metrics to see how their team is working and evaluate whether actions they are taking to improve engagement are having the desired impact. This feature currently supports work-life balance and collaboration metrics, with more areas planned in the future.
Why you should care
Board
Track as Horizon signal; decide whether it changes Wave 0 priority or stays on the watchlist.
CISO
Confirm identity, data access, and overshare exposure before enabling for broad cohorts.
CFO
Map licence or consumption impact to the frozen value case; avoid seat spray.
Adoption
Use for measurement of behaviour change; feed Pane 08 Adoption and Pane 06 Cost & Value.
Suggested action
Wave 0 first: Security → GRC → Cost & Value → Licence → Adoption. Add to Horizon watchlist with an owner. Pilot only after Steady controls for the affected surface are in place.
12 Panes: 03 Horizon
Communication needed
- Security: Assess exposure, Conditional Access, and agent/tool permissions.
- GRC: Update AI/agent register and evidence path; confirm DPIA triggers if personal data is in scope.
- FinOps: Forecast seat or credit impact; align to frozen value case.
- Adoption: Plan cohort messaging, clinics, and success measures.
- Comms: One story for board and staff — what changes, what does not, who owns risk.
Benefits
- May improve productivity on a specific Microsoft 365 surface when permissions and data quality allow.
- Roadmap visibility helps Horizon planning without guessing dates.
Risks
- Status and dates change; treat MRC as directional, not a contract.
- Enabling without Steady controls can amplify overshare or cost leakage.
- Preview or rolling features can change behaviour; fence exploration on Pane 12 Frontier.
