## Program roles and responsibilities

Drivers, Champions, and Participants each play a distinct part in ensuring AI adoption runs smoothly and responsibly.

Drivers handle setup and governance, Champions translate strategy into practice, and Participants apply AI tools in daily work. Together, these roles create a balanced cycle of enablement, feedback, and improvement.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Drivers lead the rollout." icon="screwdriver-wrench">
    Drivers ensure the AI program is responsibly configured, with licensing, access, and guardrails—like an [Acceptable Use Policy](/driver/toolsAndWorkspaces/aiPolicies)—in place. They coordinate communication so every team understands what's changing and when.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Champions turn strategy into practice." icon="crown">
    Champions act as the bridge between vision and action. They test workflows, share learnings, and support peers in navigating the chosen AI general assistant safely and effectively. Their feedback helps Drivers refine guidance and accelerates adoption across teams.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Participants bring the program to life." icon="people-group">
    Participants complete training, use AI tools in real work, ask questions, and share their results. Their engagement keeps the program grounded in everyday practice and ensures continuous improvement.

## Where to start

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select your Driver">
    The Driver is the internal lead who keeps your AI Accelerator moving forward. They bridge Pathfindr's program with your organisation's teams, ensuring access, communication, and engagement stay on track. With the right Driver, adoption accelerates and the program delivers measurable results.

  <Step title="Select your Champions">
    Champions are the hands-on advocates who turn AI strategy into practical change across teams. They experiment, share wins, and help peers apply copilots responsibly in real work. Choosing the right Champions is critical — their influence and energy will determine how fast adoption spreads.
