Congratulations and welcome to the 2026 Tableau Ambassadors

We are excited to introduce the 2026 Tableau Ambassadors! This inspiring group will join us in our mission to help people see and understand data, bringing their knowledge, leadership, and kindness to foster a more inclusive Tableau community. 

Each Ambassador in this year’s class of 357 community leaders is named under one of five designations and is leading in the community, nurturing growth, and amplifying connection.

Interested in learning more about this year’s ambassadors and finding people to connect with? Check out this dashboard that breaks down their geographic representation, how to connect with them, and what their interests in the community are. And of course, some great places to connect with Ambassadors are on the Tableau Community Slack workspace and at Tableau Conference 2027 in San Diego.
