Polytechnicast #17: Ing. Mgr. PETR LIŠKA: Board games bring emotions that Powerpoint presentations cannot convey

Are you one of those who visited the VŠPJ building on Friday 24 September to experience the unique atmosphere of the Night of Scientists, during which science shows its true face? Then it's quite possible that you joined the workshop and the subsequent gaming dedicated to the board game The Way of Life. The author of this game is Ing. Mgr. Petr Liška from Pelhřimov, guest of the 17th episode of the Polytechnicast podcast. Petr Liška has been creating board games for several years under the banner of his company Fox Games, where he says he was until recently a managing director, developer, marketer, sales representative and cleaner. If you are studying at the Department of Economic Studies at VŠPJ, you may also know him as an external lecturer of courses focused on entrepreneurship or management skills development. How do education and board games go together? Where does he find inspiration for creating board games? Why did board games eventually take precedence over a career as a PE teacher in his career? And what role will the Polytechnic College play in the upcoming game How Well Do You Know Us, focusing on the Jihlava and Havlickuv Brod region? Find out in our interview today.
