Training: AI-Supercharged Design Thinking by Shaza Hakim
Stampede is running our premier AI-Supercharged Design Thinking training on 24-25 November. RM3,500 per person, 100% HRDF claimable. Register now and we'll help you with the process.
This is a practitioner-led training by Shaza Hakim. Good timing too, with 2026 just around the corner.
Like you, we were using AI in design and product work. But we were leaving 90% of its power on the table. Chances are you are too.
Most teams treat AI as a generation tool. Make a persona. Write some copy. Generate a mockup.
The real power isn't in what AI generates for you. It’s in how it amplifies your thinking and extends your capabilities 10x 🚀
It took us some time to really figure this out, experimenting, refining and embedding AI strategically across our entire workflow. Along the way, we've been sharing our cerita too, through talks and two Stampede Makers. And when we shared how Stampede uses AI in discovery and delivery, practitioners and clients kept asking, "Can you show us the full workflow?"
And now we do. Two intensive days (fun too, because Stampede 🙌🏼) teaching our complete AI-integrated design thinking system. One that doesn't just speed execution, but amplifies your ability to uncover opportunities, validate ideas and make decisions others miss.
Other trainings cover techniques. We tackle workflow – because that's where things really scale in any organisation.
👩🏻💻🧑🏾💻 On Monday and Tuesday, you will learn how to orchestrate AI strategically across your workflow.
By Wednesday, you'll be able to:
Build synthetic users that amplify your research reach before recruiting real humans
Engineer context that amplifies your strategic thinking, not just generate outputs
Direct AI research agents that extend your analytical capability 10x
Turn AI into the team member that amplifies collaboration by holding full context
If anything, it cuts your alignment meetings easily by half. That’s real saving of money and sanity right there.
✨What We'll Cover
Over two days, we'll work through the complete AI-integrated design thinking workflow – from discovery to delivery. You'll see where AI amplifies your capability at every stage.
🕵🏼Discovery: Amplifying Research & Insight
Get up to speed 10x faster – compress days of landscape analysis into hours with AI-powered deep research
Extend your research reach – direct AI research agents to investigate paths you couldn't explore manually
Stress-test before recruiting – build synthetic users that reveal blind spots before you spend budget on participants
Amplify pattern recognition – turn weeks of synthesis into hours with AI-assisted analysis
Zoom between scales – move from micro details to macro opportunities, revealing what competitors miss
🧑🏻🎨Delivery: Amplifying Strategy & Execution
Context engineering as your superpower – learn to consistently produce strategic outputs that amplify your thinking, not generic content
Structure ideation-to-prototype – set up AI to understand intent, so you're directing instead of endlessly refining
Amplify quality assurance – conduct automated usability tests and QA that extend your testing capability
Delegate assembly, direct with taste – delegate execution to AI while you focus on strategic decisions that matter
🍒BONUS: Workflow - making successful pattern repeatable
While everyone talks techniques, we know success needs good systems. So we have a special focus on real-life teams’ workflow.
Map your complete AI integration – learn where to strategically embed AI across your entire design thinking process – no piecemeal adoption. We'll show you Stampede's complete system and help you map it to your workflow.
Turn AI into your always-on context keeper – train it to see your work and remember context so you amplify teamwork without constant alignment meetings
Build repeatable frameworks – turn one-off wins into systems your team uses consistently
🙋🏻This is for you if you're:
A designer who's been using AI to generate mockups and copy – but you know you're only scratching the surface of what's possible
A product manager drowning in backlogs and alignment meetings – you need AI that connects macro insights to product decisions and gets you to launch-ready without things blowing up in production
A design or product leader watching your team experiment with AI in scattered ways – you want strategic integration that multiplies capability, not scattered adoption
An engineer or developer tired of AI just autocompleting code – you want it to improve how your team collaborates and ships quality products
Anyone who's ready to move from using AI as a task tool to directing it as an amplifier of human capability
Prerequisite
Basic AI familiarity – you've used tools like ChatGPT or Claude for work, even if just for simple tasks
Active AI tool access – you have a paid ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro subscription (free tiers may not be sufficient for our hands on practice)
What makes this different:
Led by a practitioner, not a career trainer. This class will be led by Shaza Hakim, Stampede's co-founder and UX Principal, a practising principal designer and designer-founder with 20 years of experience. Shaza and her team have guided some of the world’s most forward-thinking organisations through digital transformation. Everything taught here comes directly from real projects and lived experiences, not hypotheticals.
Real case studies from actual client work. Every framework, every technique comes from our projects with Fortune 500 clients worldwide like PETRONAS, Intel, bp, CelcomDigi, Touch n' Go, CIMB and SEEK. We share what worked and what didn't – not because we read about it in some LinkedIn thought post, but because we lived it.
Hands-on practice, not theory. You'll work through real scenarios across discovery, design and delivery. Two full days of active doing, with frameworks you can bring and use at work.
Ongoing support after training. You'll join a cohort group over the next 3 months where you can ask questions as you apply this to your actual work.
