Viva Goals: Changes to Members’ Listing in Organization and Team Administration pages

As part of our continued efforts to improve customer experience in Viva Goals, we are bringing in a few changes to how members of organizations and teams are listed in the admin pages in Viva Goals. 

In March 2023, we rolled out a feature that allowed Viva Goals team admins to add an AAD group as members to a team. As part of this feature, org admins can also add multiple groups as members to an organization. As groups can now be added as members of an organization/team, we will soon be launching an updated members listing page that will list both individuals and groups as members of an organization or team.
