Inviting Your Team to Talent Insights
Updated

Depending on your organisation's setup, as a People Manager, you may be able to complete one or more of the following tasks:
- Invite members of your team to join Talent Insights.
- Create new teams within Talent Insights.
- Add your employees to a team.
Note that some organisations may choose to manage this process on your behalf, so you can focus on using Talent Insights to facilitate communication and collaboration within your team.
Inviting users to Talent Insights
If this function has been enabled for your organisation, a blue "Invite" button will appear at the top of your Dashboard. Click this to create an invitation link.
You may provide this link to your colleagues. They will need to use their company email address to join Talent Insights.
Your organisation may have some guidelines around this process so we recommend checking with your Talent Insights Admin regarding this.
Creating a team
If you have access to create a team, there will be a blue "Create a Team" section on your Dashboard page. This will appear after the sample teams (if you have set this to be visible) and any teams that you are already a member of.
Click "Create Team ->".
Enter a team name. If you do not enter anything in the Team Name field, it will default to "[your name]'s Team".
Enter the name of team manager into the "Team Lead" field. Note: if you do not have admin user access to your Talent Insights account, you will automatically be added as the "Team Lead" and you will not see this field.
Add the members of the team into the third field. You can choose to select names from the list of employees who have already joined Talent Insights or you can enter a new email address. Note that the email address must match your company domain.
Once you have added all the team members, you can add a personalised message to provide some context to the invitation.
Click "Send Invitations ->".
Your new team members will receive a message inviting them to join your team. Click here to see the next steps in this process.
Adding users to an existing team
As the People Manager who owns the team, you can add new team members.
On your Dashboard page, click "View Team" for the team you want to update.
Click "Invite Team Members".
You can either select existing Talent Insights users from the list or enter the email address of a new employee. Email addresses must use your company domain.
Click "Send Invitations ->". Note that currently there is not an option to add a custom message here.

Resending the invitation email
You can resend an invitation email to an employee who has not yet accepted their invitation to a team. Go to the Personality Summary page for the team and click "View Members".
The team member will be greyed out until they accept the invitation and you will not be able to view their Workplace Insights Report. Click ... to the right of their name and select "Resend Invitation".
