Pay Close Attention to Investigating Causes and Effects
11:24:7 2025-07-03 1880

Carefully analyzing the causes and effects of a given issue is one of the key ways to make the most effective use of the great brain's capabilities.

There are four main steps to do this:

  1. Clearly Identify the Problem Itself – Ask yourself: Why? How? When? etc.
  2. Examine All Aspects Related to the Existing Problem – For example, the issue may stem from an internal factor such as employees being under excessive pressure, or from an external factor such as problems in the transportation and delivery of goods.
  3. Thoroughly Explore the Impact of Each Aspect of the Problem – This helps reveal the significance of the various components.
  4. Investigate the Potential Causes Behind Each Aspect of the Problem (step 2) – At this stage, it may be helpful to engage in brainstorming.

When investigating causes and effects, it can be useful to use pen and paper to organize the sequence of possibilities and causes, and to explore the relationships between them. One can also use charts or graphs depending on the nature of the issue under investigation.

 

Case Example

Tariq had been working at the company for just three weeks, but he was already feeling very uncomfortable in his job. He was suffering from intense work pressure, which negatively affected his performance, as well as his mental and physical health. His manager couldn’t find any clear reason for this shortcoming and kept assigning him more tasks. Naturally, this caused his performance to deteriorate even further.

On one occasion, Tariq lost his temper and dealt harshly with an important client. This incident forced his manager to pause and carefully investigate the issue and its potential effects.

The investigation revealed a shortage of staff in Tariq’s department, and it was also discovered that they were using outdated equipment lacking modern capabilities. The manager responded by hiring more staff, organizing their roles, and purchasing several modern, high-speed devices. As a result, the workflow became more efficient, the pressure on Tariq and his colleagues decreased, and the clients received better service — ultimately boosting the company's success.
