Typically, root cause analysis is taught by explaining a variety of tools that require users to gain considerable experience before being able to apply them correctly in the proper settings. What's Your Problem? Identifying and Solving the Five Types of Process Problems simplifies process problem solving and outlines specific techniques to help you identify the various types of process problems and solve them effectively and efficiently.Arguing that there are only five types of process problems, the book explains that the Six Sigma methodology define, measure, analyze, improve, control (DMAIC) can be vastly simplified for learning, applying, teaching, and mentoring. It identifies the five types of process problems and describes how to solve them using a three-step procedure:

Identify the type of problem
Find the root cause
Address the root cause
Describing how to maximize ROI for Lean Six Sigma initiatives, the book:

Facilitates the application of Lean and Six Sigma principles to both self-learning and teaching others process improvement
Presents time-tested methods to help you reduce start-to-finish improvement/project times
