Q2. Root cause analysis is essential to problem-solving. However, there are four possibilities - (you may watch this video to understand more - https://tinyurl.com/ybtjmnof ) A cause may be necessary but not sufficient for a problem to occur. A cause may be sufficient but not necessary for a problem to happen. A cause may be neither sufficient nor necessary for a problem to occur. A cause may be both sufficient and necessary for a problem to occur. How should our approach to problem-solving change for each of the above situations? You may like to carry out research over the internet, talk to your partner, and colleagues while framing your response. Each club may submit maximum two responses, one by each member. Please write the answer in your own words. Please do not copy and present someone else's explanation as your own. As Excellence Enthusiasts, we are against plagiarism. Remember - Your answer will not show when you submit. It will be made visible only at 4 PM tomorrow. May the best answer win. All the best! Cheers to the Spirit of Excellence!

Together, the Excellence Ambassadors will build the best Business Excellence Glossary. -
There was an accident in the recently concluded German Grand Prix where a wheel did not go correctly and it flew and hit a cameraman. Given that the wheels need to be replaced during the flash pit stops (close to 3 seconds), it needs to be done with 100% accuracy and precision. On the face of it, it might appear that it was a manual error by the mechanic (the wheel gun slipped from his hand), but in the fast paced life of F1 safety of crew and drivers is of prime importance. This lead to the identification of a design fault on the wheel gun and Red Bull team will be revising it to ensure that such an accident doesn't occur again. An excellent example of how an RCA should be performed.
