In Classic Yammer, as a Yammer Admin, we could help with adding Admins/Leaders, and renaming Communities etc. When Modern Yammer was implemented, many of the Yammer Admin rights were removed, and only a Platform Admin can now manage these types of tasks. With the rebranding to Viva Engage and future enhancements, are there any plans to open back up Yammer Admin rights, so we can help our technical team out with these easier tasks, so they can focus on more technical platform Admin tasks?
