Foundations for Implementing Root Cause Analysis PD530931ON

Effective problem solving isn't just a quality function, and it's not just for operations or engineering. Effective problem solving is a valuable skill set needed throughout an organization. By working through a plausible scenario, you'll assess your own problem-solving skills and experience how tempting it is to jump to solutions or try to fix the problem without investigating and understanding all the underlying causes. Though sometimes effective in the short-term, jumping to solutions can be unreliable, wasting time, money, and effort. Instead, you'll be introduced to a formal problem-solving approach for finding root causes and implementing effective and lasting solutions that eliminate the problem.

Objectives

By participating in this eLearning course, you'll be able to:

• Define “problem” and be able to recognize a problem in a given scenario
• Summarize the importance of seeing problems as opportunities and the resultant effects of this approach
• Explain why a structured approach helps to solve problems
• Recite the eight-step process used for problem solving and summarize how each step contributes to solving a problem
• Summarize roles and responsibilities associated with a structured problem-solving approach
• Recognize a need for a work team, construct an effective team, and define roles and responsibilities within the team
