Pareto Principle (The 80-20 Rule)

 

• If not used correctly, the Pareto Principle can lead to an excessive focus on short-term gains over long-term planning and stability.
• When used correctly, the Pareto Principle can help prioritize tasks, optimize resources, and improve overall efficiency. It provides a useful framework for understanding complex systems and identifying key areas for improvement.
• The Pareto Principle, also known as the “80/20” rule, states that for many events, roughly 80% of effects come from 20% of the causes.
