But she was unhappy with her new job. The journal material was very boring. She didn't work aswell with her co-workers as she did in the previous journal (excepting Tim). She realized thatshe really enjoyed her old job. She began to regret her decision to avoid the conflict with Tim bymoving to the new job. In an effort to seek advice as to how to solve her problem, Laura decidedto rise this issue to Executive Committee.Task 1.After reading the case study, agree on a problem statement.Write it at the centre right of the medium of your choice. Draw a boxaround it and draw a horizontal arrow running to it.

Youmay choose to use generic headings such as:MethodsMachines (equipment)People (manpower)MaterialsMeasurementEnvironmentTask 3.The facilitator will write the categories of causes as branchesfrom the main arrow.Task 4.The facilitator will ask the question “Why does thishappen?” and the group will collectively brainstorm the possiblecauses of the problem.
As each idea is given, the facilitator writes it as a branch from theappropriate category.Causes can be written in several places if they relate to severalcategoriesTask 5.For each cause identified, the facilitator will ask again “Whydoes this happen?” and the group will collectively brainstorm theanswers.Write sub–causes branching off the causes. Continue to ask “Why?”and generate deeper levels of causes. Layers of branches indicatecausal relationships.Task 6.When the group runs out of ideas, focus attention to places onthe chart where ideas are few.Record your conversation using a phone or any other device of yourchoice. Each participant must individually upload the recording as wellas the finalised chart. Make sure to clearly indicate the name of thefacilitator and all the participants.
