Overview
The fishbone diagram is a problem solving method which seeks to look at a problem holistically and ask at least 5 WHYs on why a problem is occurring. The key point for the fishbone model is to brainstorm and try to figure out at least 5-6 possible factors which may be causing the problem you face (For example, how to increase sales). To begin using the fishbone model, the entire project has to go through a few phrases. These phases include

- Defining the problem
- Thinking of at least 5 possible reasons the problem is occurring
- Elaborating/expanding upon these 5 possible reasons
- Choosing the reasons which are most likely to have an impact on your problem

There are a few key benefits when using the fishbone model for problem solving

- Help to find the root cause of a problem
- Easy to understand as more important factors are placed closer to end of the fishbone diagram
- Allows the entire group to brainstorm and find the various factors which are causing this problem

Downsides to Fishbone Model

- Takes time to understand the root causes of a problem
- Not a good model to use if there is insufficient technical expertise

Couldn't get this app to work. Seemed to have installed but I couldn't figure out how to create my first fishbone diagram.

I can't figure out how to run it. I even re-installed it just so I could review how it says to right click and open-with, but still can't figure it out. Doesn't show up in the Open with menu.

It says the app is installed but couldn't find the app in Drive. Better instructions on how to access it would be helpful.
