Overview
​Each week we kick off with a Monday morning Work in Progress (WIP) meeting, that allows us to map out the week, assign various responsibilities, and work-related activities to members of our team.
​
Hopefully, your day-to-day at VIVA! will not be full of too many surprises! Clients do however, love to throw us an odd ball from time to time.
​
The key to optimal performance at VIVA! is to work with Kirsten, and our extended team, and to identify, and continue to refine, your account-related priorities on a day-to-day basis.
​
During your first few weeks, Mel Kheradi will assist you with your daily organisation. Her remit is to both support, and assist you, where possible.
​
Please ensure you understand how to log Zoho entries, as these timesheets are pivotal to billing our clientele.
​
This digital resource hub is designed to help you settle in, and to quickly grasp an understanding of VIVA!, our machinations, and what makes us tick!
​
Please click on the buttons in the drop-down menu below, and start to familiarise yourself with the documents housed under each topic. Over time you’ll develop a comprehensive understanding of each of these documents, and will be able to share your valuable knowledge with new VIVA! team members.
