Hi,
how to avoid the situation where people get resistant during a problem solving, cause analysis meeting? For example, when the meeting gets to the point of just doing finger pointing to each other.
Thank you.
In my experience...
The best results for this practice involves these main things.
-Management compromise
Strong pushing of top management to practice CAs and analysis
(Frequently employees refuse to participate on this)
-Deep knowledge of analysis (
8d, Fishbone,5 why) in all the people.
(Is very common that people dont´have an understanding of these wording.. symptoms, root cause, effects.
-Participation of people who really have a deep understanding of the problem in the analysis.
Sometimes people involved don´t know the real problem.
I heard somewhere "At identifying the real problem you have solved 50 % of the problem)
-Compliment in a timely manner.
(it happens.. CA is analyzed but action plans and the closeout ... are forgotten.
Having covered these issues you might have better results.
Hope it helps
