From the Consulting Trenches: What Separates Top Viva Firms

EPC Group has deployed Microsoft Viva (and the predecessor Workplace Analytics + MyAnalytics + SharePoint Look Book intranets) across 100+ Fortune 500 environments. Five factors separate top firms:

1. Viva Connections + SharePoint information architecture depth. Viva Connections sits on top of SharePoint Online. Bad deployments use the default home site; good ones build a designed information architecture matching the org structure.

2. Viva Insights privacy + compliance. Viva Insights produces individual + team productivity analytics. Bad deployments expose data to managers that should remain personal; good ones use Microsoft Purview sensitivity labels and aggregation thresholds.

3. Viva Learning content sourcing. Microsoft Learn + LinkedIn Learning + Pluralsight + Skillsoft + custom internal content all flow into Viva Learning. Top firms negotiate the content licensing + curate the corporate catalog.

4. Viva Goals OKR adoption. Goals only works if executives use it. Top firms run executive enablement sessions before broader rollout.

5. Viva Engage community management. Engage replaces Yammer. Communities need owners, posting cadence, and moderation. Without active community management, Engage becomes a ghost town within 60 days.
