    "The speaking assignment topic is: "How to Find the Accurate Problem Management Root Cause – FIRST TIME EVERY TIME!"

    "One of the biggest frustrations for Problem Management staff is re-creating the information involved in an incident. This also creates one of the largest costs to IT divisions & organisations as the difficulty in finding the correct root cause may mean the root of an incident situation is not eliminated and the incident keeps recurring.

    It is time to put an end to this, because there is a very effective way to rectify it. The most important challenge is to create a consistent Model and Process, which would earn the respect and support of Incident and Problem Investigators. A model that removes the confusion and inaccuracy with terminology where some companies have hundreds of causes to work through and on the other side of the scale some companies are looking at only three root causes, one of which is “Human Error”".

    Case, a former president of La-Z-Boy Residential, then CEO of Electrolux Home Products of North America, walked retailers here through the concept of what he calls F.A.T. leadership, using the aforementioned attributes to align a business for success - the perfect tie-in for a Myriad conference themed "Alliance."
