The 80/20 Principle

Richard Koch's "The 80/20 Principle." explains how roughly 80% of results are produced by only 20% of effort, a phenomenon evident in various aspects of life and business. The book emphasizes that this imbalance is natural, contrary to common expectations of fairness, and demonstrates how to apply this principle to enhance personal productivity, optimize business strategies, and improve overall quality of life by focusing on high-impact activities. The core message is to identify and leverage the vital few inputs that yield the majority of desired outputs, thereby fostering greater efficiency and success.
