Office 365, Daily Briefing Email
The Briefing email helps you start your day on track by surfacing information on upcoming meetings and outstanding tasks as well as protecting time for independent work
**Upcoming Changes**
Your daily briefing will soon become part of Microsoft Viva - the integrated employee experience platform that brings together communications, knowledge, learning, resources, and insights. Viva is not a third-party, but a part of the Microsoft system. Powered by Microsoft 365 and experienced primarily through Microsoft Teams, Viva fosters a culture where people and teams are empowered to be their best. You’ll continue to receive important reminders from Cortana along with new personalized insights to balance productivity and wellbeing in an email addressed from Microsoft Viva.
