1. Identify the problem - the gap between actual and desired behavior
2. Gravity analyze the problem - to determine the impact and consequences of the behavior if not corrected
3. Discuss the problem - talk to the employee and obtain their agreement on a solution
4. Paper for discussion - including the history of the problem and what has been said and agreed
5. Tracking control results - identify improvements, or take action if the problem has not resolved
