Hi Megan,
Sorry to have hijack this post with talk about getting a group together!
But to answer your question, the one thing I've identified as someone who has developed, implemented, and owned Problem management programs is that for it to be effective, problem management needs to be part of your leadership's strategic strategy or goals. What I've seen is problem management being implemented without any organizational change in place to reflect the new process. From my experiences, problem management often the lowest priority for SMEs and its often rushed without achieving true root cause analysis. And if you as the Problem Manager is the only one pushing for that work to be completed correctly then you'll just be seen as a nag because the rest of the organization just see problem records as just another ticket.
Hope this helps and I'd love to hear about other's experiences with this.

erhing within the next year. would love to spe a k to others about what you are doing in this area
