Effective Root Cause Analysis: Looking at control, responsibility, process improvement and making the whole activity more effective

By: Johnston, Giles

Do you want to solve the problems in your business once and for all?

Let's cut to the chase; too many businesses don't address the root causes of their problems. They go for a 'quick fix' and then get frustrated when the same or similar problems arise again.
Carrying out a Root Cause Analysis properly takes time and effort, and can uncover some uncomfortable truths about performance, However, you'll find this short-term pain is worth it in the long run, if it enables you to solve a problem once and for all.

Taking '5 Why' to the next level

'5 Why' is a widely known and simple approach to problem-solving commonly found at the core of lean manufacturing strategies. Unfortunately, it is often poorly executed due to a lack of effective questioning and persistence.
This book shares with you a structured way to use the '5 Why' approach to undertake a root cause analysis. It also shares a specific focus that can completely change your perspective of root cause investigation. If this approach is embraced, it can truly 'turbo charge' the results that you can get from your business. The business operations can run smoothly, and ownership of issues improve. If you adopt the ideas in this book, you can change your business' culture for the better and fundamentally change your organisation.

Solve the problem once and move on

Delving deep in problems enables them to be eradicated forever. If you follow the approach in this book, there's a good chance that you and your team won't be the same again. Be warned, however, although this process is technically easy it can be personally challenging; the results are worth it though, if you are brave enough
The approach covered in this book is the one the author uses with his clients when they are looking for a breakthrough in performance.
