Describe an example of a problem that you can use for this discussion in order to conduct a root-cause analysis. It can be an everyday problem (like getting to work on time when you also have to drop kids off at school) or a professional problem at your organization. Define the problem succinctly. Then use two (or more) of the categories from the 6 Ms (men, money, materials, machinery, measures, and Mother Nature) and perform an example root-cause analysis of the problem.
