Fishbone diagram PowerPoint template and keynote

Diagnose root causes and visualize problem‐solving workflows with this classic fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram slide. A bold black fish silhouette anchors six angled “bones,” each labeled Category 1 through Category 6 and offering four editable cause lines. The large fish head on the right highlights the main Effect, while the tail on the left balances the layout. Clean, dark gray text and simple bullet markers on each bone keep focus on your content, and the spacious white background ensures readability during discussions or workshops.

All elements are vector-based on master slides: rename categories, add or remove cause lines, adjust font sizes, and update the Effect text in seconds. Swap the black silhouette for your brand color, or recolor each bone individually to match your theme without disrupting alignment. Prebuilt animations can reveal each category sequentially, guiding your audience through root-cause analysis step by step. Fully compatible with both PowerPoint and Google Slides, this template preserves pixel-perfect clarity and streamlines collaborative editing across distributed teams.

Whether you’re facilitating quality-improvement sessions, conducting risk assessments, or teaching problem-solving methods, this fishbone diagram turns complex cause-and-effect relationships into a clear, engaging visual framework that drives insight and action.

Who is it for

Quality managers, process engineers, and Lean Six Sigma practitioners will rely on this slide to break down contributing factors and drive corrective action. Trainers, consultants, and project teams can use it to workshop solutions, map failure modes, or align stakeholders on next steps.

Other Uses

Repurpose this layout for customer-journey pain-point analyses, stakeholder-impact mapping, or marketing-channel evaluations by renaming categories and adjusting cause details. Its structured format also works for brainstorming sessions, compliance reviews, or incident-investigation workshops.
