Format: Pecha Kucha + Fireside Chat

Our first session kicks off with alumni presenting Pecha Kucha-style (20 slides, 20 seconds per slide — fast, fun, and visual). Each presenter shares a personal idea, story, or insight.

Then we host a short, interactive fireside chat with a secret guest speaker. You’ll leave inspired and ready to connect.

Bonus: Bring a plus one! Entry is free for this inaugural event.

Topic: Lessons in Leadership: Power & Persuasion – We break down TV negotiations (from shows like Suits or Succession) and discuss what works.

Format: Structured Debate

You’ll be divided into two teams (no prep required) and debate a real-world leadership dilemma:

"Should managers be direct or diplomatic when giving tough feedback?"

Our facilitator will guide the debate and structure it for clarity and energy. The winning team gets... a pineapple trophy 🍍

Format: Practical Workshop

We’ll look at 3 everyday workplace negotiation scenarios — like asking for a raise, negotiating timelines with clients, and handling pushback in meetings.

You’ll work in pairs/small groups to role-play and test strategies with live feedback.

Format: Prepared Talks by Alumni

Each participant prepares a 3–5 minute TED-style talk sharing their personal experience receiving feedback. We’ll highlight what worked, what didn’t, and what they learned.

You’ll get storytelling feedback from peers and Klaster facilitators.

Format: Hands-On Session

Many of us fear the Q&A more than the presentation itself. In this session, we’ll practice impromptu techniques, learn how to buy time, reframe questions, and deliver powerful answers—even when caught off guard.

Format: Lecture with Guest Expert

A deep dive into the science and art of storytelling—what makes people listen, remember, and care. You’ll learn how to build narrative tension, emotional connection, and memorable messages.

Special Guest: A published author (name TBA!)
