The 5 Whys Form (+ Video +Form)
The 5 Whys form is a simple tool that helps improvement teams find the root cause of a problem. This simple form documents the problem solver’s progress.
Velaction’s version of the 5 Whys template also adds in an additional feature: the confirmation step. One of the drawbacks of the 5 Whys is its limited use of data. The confirmation step requires the problem solver or team to consider whether the presumed cause needs confirmation, and what that confirmation method is.
This 5 Whys form is available to all guests to Velaction as a PDF file. A PowerPoint version of the 5 Whys template is available to registered users. (View the terms of use.)

simple & too the point. why do some folks make his too complicated?
Thanks for the compliment. I think most of the Lean tools are really pretty simple.It is getting the discipline and culture to use them regularly that is the hard part.
This is the most helpful site I have seen for couple of years working as a Lean Process Engineer. For members, the free forms are great to tag with continuous improvement initiatives.
