Problem Tree

The problem tree is a central tool of many project planning. The function of this tool is to find solutions on the problem by mapping the causes and effects. This is done by use the similar essential tool as in mind mapping, but where structure is a focus element in this method. The solution will be a prioritised presentation of a problem, its causes and consequences.

The problem tree is a tool based on the general tree diagram, which is a tool used to communicate the hierarchy of elements in a project and to clarify the relations the between main, subordinate, and supporting ideas.

Benefits

The advantages of using the problem tree is understanding the problem by breaking it down. By doing it in this way, the chunks will be easier to analyse and understand. Further these will be more manageable when chunking up and down. By expand and elaborate the problems, causes and effects it might be easier for all stakeholders to understand, because of a shared sense of purpose and action. This will clarify the processes in the different stages, and the different stakeholders and participants will be related and connected to specific parts. The issues forward will further be identified and thus handled early in the process, which e.g. can prevent a leak in the budget.
