explanation for non-techies**
Microsoft is enhancing the way managers can present data from Viva Glint by allowing the Team Summary report to be exported directly into editable PowerPoint slides. Think of it like upgrading from a photo of a document to a fully editable Word file. Previously, when you exported a report, it was like taking a screenshot of a page in a book. You could see everything, but you couldn't change anything without a lot of extra work. Now, with this new feature, it's like getting the original document where you can easily edit text, adjust layouts, and add your own notes.
This change is set to roll out in mid-September 2025 and will be completed by the end of the month. The main advantage is that these PowerPoint slides are fully editable, meaning you can use all the familiar tools within PowerPoint to customize your presentation. This makes it easier to create polished and professional presentations quickly, without the hassle of dealing with static images.
For those who prefer using custom templates, the old method of exporting screenshots will still be available. This ensures that everyone can work in the way that suits them best. No administrative setup is required for this new feature, but it's a good idea to let your team know about this improvement so they can take advantage of it.
In terms of compliance, there are no new considerations, but it's always wise to review how these changes fit within your organization's policies. Overall, this update is designed to make your reporting process more efficient and your presentations more impactful.
