Other requirements to enable PRONOUNS?

My org (multiple tenants, both GCC and standard) has enabled Pronouns per this article: Turn pronouns on or off for your organization in the Microsoft 365 admin center - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn

 

However, the option to actually USE pronouns (a "+ Pronouns" option in Outlook/Teams profile cards as shown here: Pronouns on your profile in Microsoft 365 - Microsoft Support) isn't available to any of our users, so I suspect there's something else we need to enable/allow.

 

Are there additional steps to enabling the use of Pronouns for an organization, other than just toggling it ON within the AAD admin center?

    So in answer to my own question: there's nothing else to enable at the tenant level other than toggling the feature on. It wasn't that pronouns weren't available to our users --- it was simply that we didn't know how to FIND them. Here's a short vid that SHOWS the steps: https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxotfHJXhpzBirwuXR53QfW--uSP0Il6Lk - all that was needed!
    THANK YOU to this gentleman for posting the how-to 🙂
