Cause-Effect Diagram
•Step 1:Define the problem in a center circle•Step2: draw a cause circle at each of the 4 compass headings.•Step 3: Ask the group to define at least these 4 causes and place them in the circles. Are there other primary causes?•Step 4:Explore the sub causes of the primary causes, and continue until all causes have been explored.
The result will be an inventory of granular root causes, some of which will be excellent targets for improvement.
