The purpose of the Fishbone Diagram is to support you as you drill down to identify the actual problem. You can use as many major causes and sub-causes as you may need to document the results of your brainstorming as you identify the root problem.

To get started, you may want to research different brainstorming techniques, such as the 5 Why\\\’s or the 4P\\\’s to assist you in completing the Fishbone Diagram. When you start the brainstorming process, you should think of the diagram as a fish with the main axis being the fish spine; the issue\\\’s primary factors branch out in a fashion resembling the bones of the fish.

Using the Fishbone Diagram helps you to break down complex issues into manageable components. Take note of causes that appear numerous times. Test the most likely cause and verify it with data.
Important: Keep in mind to state causes, not solutions.

Note: The diagram for this assignment has been created in Excel to provide you with a template to work in and does not reflect the traditional Fishbone Diagram but works the same way. You may not need to use all the major cause or sub-cause fields provided; it is not required.

The following are the steps to construct your Fishbone Diagram.

• Brainstorm potential causes of the problem.

1. Identify your major cause categories and record them in the diagram.
   1. Note: Double-click in the field where you want to record information.
   2. The following are examples of categories that are commonly used, but yours may be different:
      1. Turnover, Culture, Retention, Job Satisfaction, Management, Customer Service.
      2. Methods, Machines, Materials, People.
      3. Places, Procedures, Employees, Policies.
      4. Surroundings, Suppliers, Systems, Skills.
2. Identify sub-causes that may contribute to the problem and record them in the diagram.
   1. Review each sub-cause and highlight the most likely causes on the diagram.
   2. Review the sub-causes that are highlighted and ask, \\”Why is this a cause?\\” Asking why helps you get to the root of the problem.
   3. Identify supporting information that could contribute to each of the sub-causes.
   4. Add the contributing factors in a branch off the sub-cause.

• • Continue identifying causes until you identify the root cause for the problem.

Prepare

• Prepare for the assignments due in Weeks 3 and 4 by reviewing the course guide and the assignment requirements.
