Apply design thinking daily with AJ&Smart’s massively popular Lightning Decision Jam recipe for ideation. It’s a repeatable, easy-to-learn recipe for brainstorming and decision-making that’s proven to work every time.

Design thinking is often misunderstood. It's not just a trendy buzzword, but a powerful approach that requires commitment, leadership support, and a willingness to embrace change for it to take root and thrive within an organization. When design thinking is taken seriously, it drives innovation and business growth—over a 10-year period, design-led companies delivered returns 219% higher than those of the S&P 500.

But what if you could apply design thinking in your daily work without organizational buy-in or change management? What if you could take what’s great about design thinking and use it to make ideation and decision-making in your meetings 10 times better? Join Amr Khalifeh from AJ&Smart to learn all about the Lightning Decision Jam, how it works, and how you can start using it with your team immediately.

You’ll learn:

  • How the Lightning Decision Jam allows anyone to start applying design thinking in daily work.
  • The counterintuitive techniques behind effective ideation and decision-making.
  • How to turn meetings and group collaboration from unproductive time sinks into the most productive parts of your day.
  • Step-by-step explanation of how to run a Lightning Decision Jam with your team, as well as the Miro template for running a remote Lightning Decision Jam.

Put an end to long, unproductive meetings—harness the power of design thinking for faster, more effective problem-solving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Master Class webinar be recorded?
Absolutely! Every Master Class webinar is recorded by default, and if you register, you will automatically receive the link to the recording a few hours after the broadcast ends.
What happens if I can't attend a Master Class webinar live?
No problem at all—as long as you make sure to register for it, you’ll receive a recording link a few hours after the broadcast ends. This way, you can catch up on everything that happens in the live session. But, do be sure to register, as the recording is only sent to registered attendees!
I just signed up for a Master Class webinar—what's next?
Once you register, you’ll receive an email from Zoom, our webinar partner. This email contains the link you’ll need to join the Master Class webinar during the broadcast.

This email is sent from noreply@zoom.us so if you can’t locate it in your inbox, please check your Spam folder. If you still cannot locate this email, please reach out to mads.soegaard@interaction-design.org and we'll help you out!
I signed up for a Master Class webinar which aired recently, but I cannot find the recording in my email inbox. What can I do?
The email with the recording is sent automatically to all registrants. However, because it contains links, it might get blocked by your spam filters.

In case you have not received it, please search your Spam for an email from mads.soegaard@interaction-design.org received on the date of the webinar in question. If you still cannot locate it, please send an email to this very same email address and we will help you!
I missed registering for some of the Master Class webinars hosted in previous months. How can I get access to them now?
Some of our past Master Classes are available on-demand at https://www.interaction-design.org/master-classes We’re constantly working to make recent Master Classes available on demand, so you can keep checking this page for new additions!
I’m a member, but I cannot see all the Master Classes I purchased on my profile. How can I find the ones that are missing?
Many of the past Master Classes have been edited and uploaded to our platform so that our members can view them conveniently in one place.

After each Master Class broadcast, our video editors painstakingly edit, improve and enhance the quality of these recordings to give you a better experience—but this process takes time, and that’s why there’s sometimes a delay in making them available within your profile.

Until recent Master Class recordings appear in your profile, you can always playback any of the Master Classes you’ve purchased using the Zoom recording links you received after the broadcast. Can’t find these recording links? Then please email mads.soegaard@interaction-design.org for assistance.
