What should I focus on next to move from Rising Star to Atlassian Community Champion?

[Yashodip Jadhav]

Hi everyone, I’m currently a Rising Star in the Atlassian Community and have been actively contributing through answers and discussions. Now I’m aiming to grow further and work towards becoming a Community Champion.

I wanted to understand from existing Champions or experienced members what really makes the difference at this stage? Is it more about consistency, quality of contributions, event participation, or something else?

Would really appreciate any guidance or real experiences on how to move to the next level.

Hello @Yashodip Jadhav 

You need to apply for a community champion which can be found here: https://community.atlassian.com/champions.

Your format of the answers also count: which is about solving an issue that users have. When you send your application, you will be given good feedback for your development to community champions.

Hi Yashodip,

Focus on adding value for fellow Community Members first and foremost. Provide good, quality answers with sufficient detail and not AI produced. Answers must be from your knowledge, not AI. Begin there is my best advice.
