The Five Whys Analysis
Have you ever experienced a problem that refused to go away, and you thought you fixed? Sooner or later it returned, maybe in a different form. How annoying!
Recurring problems are often symptoms of deeper issues. "Quick fixes” seem convenient, but only solve surface issues and waste resources. Five Whys Analysis is a Lean problem solving tool to move past symptoms and identify the true root cause(s) of a problem.

The Fishbone is a Lean tool that can help you add structure to a problem solving brainstorming session. It combines brainstorming with mind mapping.
