8D Workshop
8D Workshop – June 24 and 25, 2010
Eight Disciplines of Problem Solving is a well established step by step process to scientifically describe the problem in such a way that the root cause and subsequent solutions are intuitive and logical. If you have ever watched the television series CSI, you are seeing an application of a scientific problem solving approach similar to 8D.
One key aspect of 8D that many do not understand is that 8D is not initially concerned about what the root cause IS, but rather what IS NOT. It is easier to collect data on possible causes to eliminate them than it is to find a specific root cause. This is actually faster than going straight for the root cause without data to support the most likely causes.
Quality Associates International is extremely pleased to announce our Eight Disciplines for Problem Solving (8D) Training / Workshop! This is similar to our Workshops for Global 8D provided for Ford Motor Company and many other Fortune 500 Companies.
We have created this dynamic Workshop to bring the 8D process to life for any participants who have tried 8D and have not experienced the benefits. This course provides real “hands on” experience with a real problem solver. We are very confident that you will find this course beneficial!
