DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION
What is the Pareto Principle (80/20 Rule)?
The Pareto Principle, also known as the 80/20 Rule, The Law of the Vital Few, and The Principle of Factor Sparsity, illustrates that 80% of effects arise from 20% of the causes ? or in layman's terms ? 20% of your actions/activities will account for 80% of your results/outcomes.
The Pareto Principle gets its name from the Italian-born economist Vilfredo Pareto (1848-1923), who observed that a relative few people held the majority of the wealth (20%) ? back in 1895. Pareto developed logarithmic mathematical models to describe this non-uniform distribution of wealth and the mathematician M.O. Lorenz developed graphs to illustrate it.
Dr. Joseph Juran was the first to point out that what Pareto and others had observed was a "universal" principle—one that applied in an astounding variety of situations, not just economic activity, and appeared to hold without exception in problems of quality.
In the early 1950s, Juran noted the "universal" phenomenon that he has called the Pareto Principle: that in any group of factors contributing to a common effect, a relative few account for the bulk of the effect. Juran has also coined the terms "vital few" and "useful many" or "trivial many" to refer to those few contributions, which account for the bulk of the effect and to those many others which account for a smaller proportion of the effect.

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.
I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me. Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current. Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world." – Roberto Pelliccia, Senior Executive in International Hospitality
