At Metro, we love the 80/20 rule. We do the 20% of the work that gets 80% of the results.
The 80/20 rule is 4 times more productive than the “100% rule”!
Just in case it’s not clear why, the table below illustrates.
| Work done | Output using 100% rule | Output using 80/20 rule |
|---|---|---|
| 20% | Thing 1: Output 20 | Thing 1: output 80 |
| 40% | Thing 1: Output 20 | Thing 2: output 80 |
| 60% | Thing 1: Output 20 | Thing 3: output 80 |
| 80% | Thing 1: Output 20 | Thing 4: output 80 |
| 100% | Thing 1: Output 20 | Thing 5: output 80 |
| TOTAL | Output 100 | Output 80 x 5 = 400 |
