Tools to Identify the QI Focus

• Define the problem areas

• Compare the current state with the desired state

• Check alignment with organizational mission and goals

7

Tools to Identify Focus

• Brainstorming

• Idea writing

• Impact analysis

• Pareto Diagram

• Problem statement

• Selection grid

8

Brainstorming

• A focused creativity technique designed to collect multiple ideas about an issue

• Benefits Encourages creative thinking Generates a large number of ideas Gets all team members involved Eliminates fear of criticism Increases the number of options

9

Brainstorming Rules

• No criticisms or compliments• No discussion• No questions• Speed is important• Think broadly• Develop wild, outrageous ideas• Build on ideas of others• Listen• Do not interrupt• Quantity is important

10

Brainstorming Steps

1. Clarify the brainstorming objective

2. Write the objective at the top of the flip chart

3. Review brainstorming rules

4. Determine process: free flow or take turns

5. Record each idea on the flip chart

6. Continue until all ideas are exhausted

7. Clarify each idea after all ideas are listed

8. Group like ideas together

11

Idea Writing

• Individual brainstorming on paper

• Benefits Idea notes may be written before the team

meeting Protects anonymity Idea notes shared at the meeting Includes those who cannot attend

12

Impact Analysis

• Survey technique to discover the impact or effect of a situation or problem

• Benefits Confirms the problem or project is worthwhile Indicates the severity of the problem Often uncovers new information Allows for sharing of thoughts, opinions, and

ideas

13

Pareto Diagram

• Bar chart that demonstrates the distribution of issues that cause most of the problems

• Benefits Applies the 80/20 rule Focuses on the 20% of the work that cause

80% of the problems Gives the biggest return for your efforts Helps explain problem to others

Problem Statement

• Defines and summarizes the issue or problem• Benefits

Spells out the impact of the current state Defines the opportunities of the desired state Explains the expected impact of correcting the

situation Delivers a consistent message

16

Define Goals

• What are we trying to accomplish?

• SMART Goals Specific Measurable Attainable Realistic Timely

17

Tools to Understand the Cause

• Clarify the process Flow chart the process

• Determine cause Fishbone or Cause and Effect Diagram Impact analysis Data Pareto Diagram

18

Flowchart the Process

• A diagram of the sequence of steps in a work effort• Benefits

Clarifies current knowledge of process Demonstrates the work flow Examines parts of a process and their relationship

to each other Identifies the sources of variation for each step

from start to finish Points out unnecessary complexity, inefficiency, and

redundancy Develops a common understanding

19

Flowchart Steps

• Involve those most knowledgeable about the process

• Define the boundaries (beginning and end)

• List the work activities, decisions, and documents

• Place the activities, decisions, and documents in the order that they occur

• Connect the activities with arrows

22

Fishbone or Cause & Effect Diagram

• Explores and displays the identified causes and relationships leading to a specific outcome

• Benefits Involves multiple team members Allows grouping of information Displays related causes Gives ideas for goals Points out data needs Provides ideas for solutions Presents big picture of the problem Easy to understand

23

Fishbone or Cause & Effect Steps

1. Agree on the problem statement or outcome

2. Identify major cause categories

3. Brainstorm reasons for each of the major causes

4. Clarify the diagram

5. Post for others to review

Multi-voting Steps

1. List ideas or options on flip chart or chalk board2. Each team member votes for their top three

choices3. Clarify among the team and eliminate choices

with one or zero votes4. Each team member selects top two choices

from the remaining list5. Repeat the process until the top one or two

ideas have been selected

31

Cost-benefit Analysis

• Determine the financial impact by comparing the costs and benefits

• Benefits Evaluates the cost of a change Supports decision-making Provides supporting documentation for QI

team’s recommendation

32

Force Field Analysis

• Identify and discuss forces that support or interfere with a change

• Benefits Identifies obstacles Lists supporting elements Suggests action steps
