Synopsis

A step-by-step approach to your successful cause investigation.When the challenge is to get to the heart of a problem, you need a simple and efficient cause investigation methodology. And what would make a real difference would be an interactive map to lead you to the answer every time. Chester Rowe’s Simplifying Cause Analysis: A Structured Approach combines an instruction book with a downloadable Interactive Cause Analysis Tool – for the results you have been looking for.The book is intended for professionals like you. You have some familiarity with cause analysis projects, but you’re looking for a simple and efficient cause investigation methodology – a more effective and insightful way of asking “why?”Follows the Cause Road Map. The author provides a comprehensive taxonomy for every cause investigation. Supporting his instructions with diagrams, charts, and real-world examples from companies like yours, he takes you step-by-step through planning, completing, and documenting your investigation: Chapter 1 helps you determine the level of effort that your investigation will require, assess the level of effort needed, and determine the rigor needed. Your investigation needs to be as risk-informed as possible Chapters 2 through 5 offer a new and innovative structure – rigorous yet intuitively easy to remember – to identify the underlying causes for the event (Cause Road Maps) and conduct the investigation. Chapter 6 introduces conceptual human performance models that will allow you to begin focusing on the human behaviors involved. Chapters 7 and 8 present you with methods, tools, and techniques for carefully interviewing personnel. Chapters 9 through 13 “put the pieces together,” guiding you to analyze and model the event, determine corrective action, and document the investigations and findings.Free Interactive Cause Analysis Tool.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Chet’s self-reliance and problem-solving abilities emerged early when, at 14 years old, he was given some parts for a Ham Radio receiver. To build this receiver, he had to teach himself calculus and electronics. Before his farther died, when he was 16 years old, Chet had designed the circuits for and then built this receiver using parts from discarded TVs. His father’s death pushed Chet into early adulthood and responsibilities to help his raise his siblings. After overcoming 16 years of financial and other obstacles, Chet earned a BS in Nuclear Engineering and an AS in Physics/General Studies. Although never earning a degree in the discipline, Chet has had all of the training needed for a degree in Electrical Engineering. Chet recently retired after over 40 years of experience in the commercial nuclear industry. Chet is the creator of the Cause Road Map© Taxonomy and trained in Kepner-Tregoe, TapRoot®, PII, MORT and other cause investigation and problem-solving techniques. As a result, he has been involved in more cause investigations than he can remember. Prior to his commercial nuclear experience, Chet served in the U.S. Navy aboard three (3) Submarines and completed qualification as an Engineering Watch Supervisor (EWS) (equivalent to a Reactor Operator at a Commercial Nuclear plant). Chet achieved the rank of First Class Petty Officer (EM1-SS) in less than four (4) years, received several Navy commendations, and was recommended for a billet aboard the NR-1 deep submergence research submarine and an LDO commission (both declined for a return to civilian life and completion of his BS degree).
