Welcome Wednesday: Give Some Kudos!

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

Are you aware of Kudos? That’s Atlassian’s gamification system here in the online community. You can access it from the menu in the top right corner next to your profile icon. From here there are challenges you can complete to earn kudos for yourself.

You can also give people kudos for a variety for reasons like writing great content. You are able to hand out 10 kudos which resets each week.

This week, I’m not asking a question, but just suggesting that you should think about handing out those free kudos you have. Did someone help you by providing a great answer? Give some kudos! Did you read an article that you found inspiring? Give some kudos!

I promising this is NOT me trying to fish for kudos, in fact there are many of you who comment on these posts each and every week who are very deserving of some kudos!

Have a great rest of the week everyone!

I have been trying to use this feature as I go through the daily digest, though I sometimes feel like I'm selecting the same helpful, knowledgeable people over and over again. That's what they get for being so helpful. 😁

@Sai Krishna Gottapu welcome to the online community!

@Jimmy Seddon great reminder to give out some free acts of kudosness!

Everyone that has commented here so far has received some Kudos from me - I have some more to give for anyone else that participates!

I love this, @Jimmy Seddon! I will add that there are multiple ways to give Kudos points:

1. In the top-right section of the Kudos dashboard (which can be accessed by clicking the word 'Kudos' in the top nav)

2. From the community member's profile in the Kudos section (see Jimmy's for an example)

3. If you hover over the community members name when they've commented, like:

Great suggestion - I confess to being entirely too stingy handing out Kudos - I can only promise to try and do better!

Love the kudos feature. We had a ritual of #FriYaY #Hi5 shoutouts in one of the teams I was part of. It was a great way to wrap the week recognising people and teams for their great work and impact.
