The Atlassian Champion Programs team plays a vital role in developing and sustaining recognition and engagement initiatives for Champions, organized into two distinct tracks: Community and Success Champions.

• Community Champions: This track emphasizes Champions who actively contribute to our global community through knowledge sharing, mentorship, hosting local events, and influencing the community roadmap and resources.
• Success Champions: This track highlights Champions who make significant contributions within their organizations by driving new ways of working and excellence in team performance by leveraging Atlassian solutions and methodologies.
