An accurate 5-Why provides a simple way to start a cause-and-effect analysis. This Webinar covers some important DOs and DON’Ts that will explain how the technique is confused and how it should be used. Topics will include:
• 5-Why Basics and Benefits
• Drawbacks and Misuse of a 5-Why
• Does a 5-Why align with a Cause Map®?
This workshop delivers the fundamental concepts, documentation and facilitation material as well as an abbreviated application of the content as a condensed version of our Cause Mapping Root Cause Analysis for Facilitators + Documentation Workshop.

During this FREE live webinar, we’ll demonstrate the Cause Mapping method, as well as answer your specific questions about our approach to root cause analysis. The Cause Mapping method is evidence-based cause-and-effect and can be used on day-to-day issues as well as catastrophic incidents. Anyone wanting to become a more effective manager or team member can benefit from this discussion. Participants will take away practical tips that can be implemented immediately.
Find out more »Root cause analysis (RCA) is typically used for investigating why a problem did occur so that specific solutions can be implemented to prevent it from occurring again. Failure modes effect analysis (FMEA) is used to understand how a problem could happen in the future, to identify what actions should be taken to prevent it. Learn how to connect these two approaches to improve the way your organization analyzes, documents, communicates and prevents problems.

We will review Cause Mapping concepts and conventions, the basics of cause and effect thinking, cause-and-effect fundamental relationships and common errors by facilitators. The session will culminate into a case study that brings all the pieces together.
Who should attend?
The focus of this course is to refamiliarize attendees with the Cause Mapping method and provide an opportunity for attendees to ask method application questions. Prior Cause Mapping workshop attendance is recommended.

A mere 73 seconds after liftoff, the space shuttle broke apart over the Atlantic Ocean, taking the lives of all seven crew members. In this webinar, we'll use this catastrophic event as a case study for understanding how a cause-and-effect based root cause analysis can be applied to complex, catastrophic incidents.

Each worksheet has a specific purpose within the investigation and allows you to document the different parts of a complete incident investigation. This free webinar will explain the purpose of each of the worksheets included in the file, as well as offer a few helpful tips and tricks to complete your investigation.

Failure modes effect analysis (FMEA) is used to understand how a problem could happen in the future in an effort to identify what actions should be taken to prevent it. RCA is reactive, and FMEA is proactive. Connecting the two approaches can improve how your organization analyzes, documents, communicates and prevents problems.
In this online short course, you’ll learn:
The importance of cause-and-effect thinking for understanding and preventing incidents.The 10 steps of conducting a conventional FMEA.How a system breaks out into its parts.How RCA and FMEA connect into a cumulative Cause Map™ diagram—a tool that captures the different failure modes over the life of a system.

Beyond solving problems after they’ve happened, RCA strategies can be applied before, during or after an event to prevent failures and mitigate risk.
In this online short course, you will learn:
What RCA is and how to use it effectively to solve day-to-day and catastrophic problems
The difference between categorizing and analyzing a problem
About the use and evolution of common tools like 5 Whys, Fishbone Diagrams and logic trees
How to document and present your own RCA investigations
This course is for managers, technical leads and frontline problem solvers interested in understanding how to improve your problem-solving culture. It applies across industries from manufacturing to energy to healthcare to IT.

Instead of providing a thorough explanation for the problem, we stop at just the point where further explanation is needed. As a result, solutions are often generic focusing solely on the person. We miss a valuable opportunity for lessons learned to improve and manage by work process.
The workshop highlights the importance of work process and how the type of error made can drive specific solutions that improve work process.
Effective work processes prevent problems from occurring in the first place. Many organizations mistakenly believe “procedure not followed” is the end of an investigation. Using the Cause Mapping® method, we will show you how it’s a gateway that reveals specifically how to prevent a problem from occurring again. The solutions implemented provide a great example that there’s more than one way to solve a problem.
During this two-hour online training course you will learn:
How to dissect some of the troubled work processes in your company, how to utilize the knowledge and experience within your organization to prevent problems and improve performance, how to use the Cause Mapping template in Excel to document your work process and complete investigations
The Cause Mapping Root Cause Analysis for Facilitators + Documentation Public Workshop provides valuable problem-solving skills that you can immediately apply within your organization.
