I would use the table to summarize even further: Many problems are self derived or due to (lack of good) process.
And going further I'd say that even the process part is self derived. If you ask a programmer, he'll often say he hates process, meetings, and decisions where he wasn't in the majority (the last one only indirectly). But he also loves the results of process: quality, aligned decision making, people in other departments considering his previous work on a topic.
The thing with self derived problems is that you can't do much from the outside beside trying to show with examples and experiences that other ways are possible.
Last but not least I personally feel that if you mostly or only have self derived problems left you belong to the happiest group of people on the planet. Sadly human nature does not make us happy if we get everything we want. We're still relatively unhappy.
Thanks, I think the frequency numbers are important to know how different the issues are. The paper is quite a bit to digest but this is probably what most people who click the link are really after.
