How to Create a Fishbone (Ishikawa) Diagram Quickly
The Cause and Effect analysis method is often used in management to identify the possible causes of a problem to eliminate them. The main goal of the Fishbone diagram is to illustrate graphically the relationship between a given outcome and all the factors that influence this outcome. The complete diagram resembles a fish skeleton, as its name implies. We recommend using ConceptDraw MINDMAP for generating structured data employed in Cause and Effect analysis, and then, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM for data visualization in a Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram. The ability to create a Fishbone diagram from a mind map is delivered by the Fishbone Diagrams solution. This solution is installed for both MINDMAP and DIAGRAM.

- You can use one of the pre-designed mind map templates, provided with the Fishbone Diagram solution. Develop a mind map that rates the potential causes according to their level of importance.
