SwissSkills 2025: Activate your superpower

Discover your superpower and shape your future

Our interactive “Activate your Superpower” booth at this year’s SwissSkills captivated participants. By asking targeted questions, they were able to discover their individual strengths and transform into unique superheroes with the help of AI. Whether discovering their passions, building on their strengths or exploring new horizons – it was the start of a journey to a successful future.

Which superhero is inside you?

Quantum Mind

Who you are:

You are a calming influence in your team. Numbers are like a code you want to crack. You think logically, get to the bottom of things and are super precise. You have a sharp eye for detail – nothing gets past you. And when things get tricky, you stay calm and analyze the situation.

What drives you:

You love understanding things. Whether it’s data, statistics or a complex problem – you want to know exactly what’s behind it. You make smart decisions that are always rational and wise.

How you come across:

You are calm and think carefully before you say something. Others appreciate you because you are reliable and think logically. Small talk is not your thing. You provide reliable advice in discussions.

Grid Guardian

Who you are:

You love order – in your mind, on your desk and in your daily life. When others are overwhelmed by chaos, you stay cool and bring structure to the situation. You see the big picture, pay attention to every detail and ensure that everything runs exactly as it should. You don’t find rules annoying – they give you security and make everything easier.

What drives you:

“A place for everything and everything in its place.” To-do lists, neatly sorted files and well-thought-out plans make you really happy. You are someone who can always be relied upon – whether it’s homework, a project or a team job.

How you come across:

You are calm, friendly and always have a plan. Others come to you when they don’t know what to do next – because they know that you’ll find the best solution step by step and communicate clearly.

Tech Master

Who you are:

You are a creator. Technology? Tools? Systems? Just your thing! You understand how things work – and if not, you find out. You like tinkering, programming or building something new. You want everything to run better, faster, smarter. And you make this happen.

What drives you:

If something isn’t going smoothly, you don’t throw up your hands in despair – you find a solution. You think practically and work efficiently. Your goal is to solve problems and improve processes – step by step and with determination.

How you come across:

You are someone who takes action and helps when others don’t know what to do. You explain technology in a way that everyone can understand. You’re the practical head of the team that everyone can count on.

Neo Crafter

Who you are:

You constantly have new ideas. You are creative, curious and often think differently from everyone else – and that is exactly your superpower! You like to try things out, tinker with new concepts and want to make the world a bit cooler and better.

What drives you:

You love coming up with something new – whether a design, a project, a campaign or a tool. Change doesn’t scare you; it fires your imagination. You don’t just want to follow the crowd – you want to start something new.

How you come across:

Your enthusiasm is infectious. You are open and when you speak, people listen – because you inspire, motivate and get them to think creatively themselves. There is always a touch of magic around you.

Social Shaper

Who you are:

You have a big heart and immediately sense when someone is not happy. You are patient, understand others and help wherever you can – whether with problems, in a team or just by lending an ear. You bring people together and ensure that everyone feels comfortable.

What drives you:

It is important to you that no one is alone. You stand up for others, listen, comfort, explain – whatever is needed at that moment. Harmony and teamwork are not just empty words for you, but your mission.

How you come across:

You are open and warm-hearted – the kind of person others like to come to. Whether a dispute needs to be settled or someone needs help, you are there – calm, reliable and friendly.
 

Energy Rider

Who you are:

You have a way with words! Whether in front of the class, in a team or in an argument – you always find the right thing to say. You are persuasive, good at explaining things and can get even difficult topics across clearly. Your voice has power – and you use it wisely.

What drives you:

You want everyone to be in the know and feel understood. You like to moderate, discuss or present ideas. For you, talking is not just chatting or babbling – it is a true superpower.

How you come across:

Others like to listen to you because you tell exciting stories but stay fair. You connect people, mediate between groups and are often the one who provides clarity.
