How to Use the 5 Whys Method
The 5 Whys method is part of the Toyota Production System. And, as my regular viewers know, I am a big fan of raiding Japanese management and production techniques and applying them to strengthen our project management toolkit. So, how do we use the 5 Whys method?
Five Steps…
1 Gather your team
2 Define what the problem is
3 Find root cause with 5 whys
4 Develop solution
5 Take action to implement the solution

Use 5 Whys to get to the cause of an event or outcome. It's not as rigorous at FMEA, but it is a quick and effective way of uncovering the primary reason why something has happened.
