Everyone can benefit from understanding a systems approach to problem solving. The “Front Line” Cause Mapping Workshop was created to provide a training solution for those in your organization who will benefit from learning how to effectively solve day-to-day problems and will be relied upon to provide input into larger problem investigations. The course will focus on applying Cause Mapping concepts to improve communication, building Cause Maps for day-to-day problems, and bringing a prevention vs blame mentality to problem solving. This 5 why analysis training is delivered in a half-day format but can be condensed to 2 hours if necessary. It is offered as a live event at your location or online.

 

What you will learn

During our 5 why analysis training you will learn how to:

  • Apply a systems approach to problem solving
  • Apply a “5-why” analysis to reveal solutions to day-to-day problems
  • Apply valuable communication skills and techniques in day-to-day problem solving
  • Avoid the 5 miscommunication traps that can derail effective problem solving
  • Drive a “prevention” instead of “blame” focus during an investigation
  • Participate in and become a valuable resource for larger problem investigations

Who should attend

Our Cause Mapping workshops will benefit anyone who wants to improve their problem-solving and problem-communication skills, including those “Closest to the work.” Attendees of our 5 why analysis training will learn the core skills that will improve their ability to break down day-to-day problems both efficiently and effectively. As a result, attendees will be able to immediately apply “5-Why Analysis” to solve problems on the spot while also providing a foundation for becoming a resource on larger problems.

Typical problem-solving role

  • Front Line Problem Solver
  • Investigation Contributor

What type of problems do you need to solve?

The severity of a problem should dictate the level of analysis. For high-risk problems, a more detailed analysis will reveal a larger set of solutions across multiple work processes. More solutions = greater risk reduction.
