Meet and plan with Viva Glint data stakeholders

Microsoft Viva Glint refers to employee data as "attributes." Attributes are data about the people in your organization, which are then used to convert feedback into insightful and action-oriented intelligence to improve employee engagement and achieve business goals. To determine your organization's Viva Glint attributes and data preparation timeline, meet with data stakeholders like HR, IT, and Security.

Meet with internal stakeholders

To ensure that Viva Glint users can filter to the right insights, meet with a team of people to decide which attributes to include in your Viva Glint data. Some potential stakeholders are:

  • HR information system (HRIS) vendors
  • IT and security team members
  • HR business analysts
  • Your employee engagement team
  • Executive leadership

Tip

Your organization may already have an HRIS connector set up in Microsoft 365 Organizational Data Service. You can use the same connector to send data to Viva Glint. Contact your Organizational Data Source Administrator for more information.
