It's been a fast and fun initial journey on #msftviva and helping to lead Connections. I'm excited to further expand our intranet experiences for customers and to work with this awesome team on building it. In addition to Viva Connections we've got a lot in store for this year!
Indeed. It’s been a fast paced journey to leverage our existing strengths and co-design with customers for the next decade of intranet innovation with #msftviva. And best of all a world class team to work with!
