Congratulations on being ready to launch Matter for Teams! Below you’ll find a helpful template for writing a successful internal communication message. Be sure to modify the sections in [brackets].
Hi Everyone,
Recognizing each other’s hard work is one of the most important things we can do as a team. It strengthens communication, builds trust, and makes people feel truly valued for their contributions.
To make recognition fun and effortless, we’re excited to roll out Matter — right where we work in Microsoft Teams! 🙌
With Matter, everyone can recognize each other with kudos in the moment and regularly to help build a culture of appreciation. 👉 Watch this quick Overview Video to learn more.
[Celebrations - If you are using Celebrations]
We will be celebrating [birthdays and/or work anniversaries] with Matter’s Celebrations feature.
Birthday Celebrations: Matter will prompt you in Teams to enter your birthdate (month and day only).
Work Anniversary Celebrations: We’ll upload these dates so they’re recognized automatically.
Celebration Messages: On your big day, a message will be posted in [Channel] so we can celebrate together. If your celebration is on a Saturday/Sunday, it'll be celebrated on the previous Friday during the work week.
Please join me in the [Channel, e.g., Matter] and send your first kudos! 🎉
Thank you!
