5 Why’s Survey

by Ron Pereira on July 28th, 2007

My fellow Keller, Texas lean blogging pal Mark, of Lean Blog fame, is running a survey.

Following up on the LEI survey that was released and discussed here, I’ve been talking with a few folks offline about what the “root causes” really are for Lean struggles. Instead of pointing at “who?” what would we find if we asked “Why?” And then asked “Why?” again. Let’s utilize one of the Toyota Production System problem solving methodologies, the “5 Whys?”

Please take the time to share your thoughts with the rest of the lean world by clicking here and taking the survey.
