Steampunk Academy - Interactive Simulation (Morning Session)

A Game-Based Workshop on Self-Presentation

Talking about yourself clearly and concisely isn’t always easy — especially when your strengths don’t fit neatly into a single role, job title or list of skills. For many professionals in people-focused fields, their real value shows up in how they think, read situations, work with others and influence outcomes — not in a polished introduction.

“Steampunk Academy Crises” is a game-based workshop where you present yourself not by talking, but by doing.

You’ll step into a world where magic meets engineering, and work with others to solve unexpected challenges. Along the way, you’ll naturally demonstrate how you think, make decisions, collaborate, and approach complex situations.

This format is especially useful if your expertise is hard to sum up in a short introduction. It brings out qualities that often go unnoticed in traditional self-presentation — depth of thinking, awareness of context, the ability to connect people, spot what matters and move things forward.

This is neither a lecture nor traditional networking, but a space where self-presentation happens through decisions, ideas, communication, and shared experience.

During the workshop, you will:
— gain a clearer sense of your strengths
— see how others perceive you
— look at your professional role from a fresh perspective
— explore a more natural way to talk about what you do
— express yourself through real interaction rather than formality

This is your chance not just to introduce yourself, but to show others the value you bring — in action.

Who is this workshop for?

This workshop is for professionals, entrepreneurs, experts and creators who don’t just want to talk about what they do, but want to express their value in a way that feels real, nuanced and convincing.

It’s especially relevant if you:
— don’t enjoy formulaic self-introductions or formal networking
— feel that your expertise is broader, deeper and more interesting than a single role or short pitch
— want to better understand how you show up in a group and how others perceive you
— want to demonstrate your strengths not only through words, but through action
— work across roles, fields or approaches, and want to present your multi-dimensional experience more clearly
