Root Cause Analysis Blog

OK - I’ll point out another bad piece of advice.

This time a non-profit agency recommended that public health departments use 5-Whys to analyze problems fighting the H1N1 pandemic.

Do they really need to be told to ask why?

Wouldn’t a systematic, proven, successful, advanced root cause analysis system - TapRooT® - better serve the needs of our country?

For more about why I hate 5 Whys, see:
