Fishbone diagram

A fishbone diagram is a visual tool for tracking down the root causes of a problem. It sorts possible causes into categories such as people, process, equipment, materials, environment and management, so you can see how they connect to the main issue. Mapping causes this way helps a team spot patterns and agree on where to focus improvement efforts instead of guessing.
