Leaders should work out their role

ACCORDING to Pareto’s Law, 20% of the group members do 80% of the work. These are the leaders. Management and motivation gurus would endeavour to persuade members of their audience to strive to be among this 20%.  

Pareto’s Law is a form of the statistical binomial distribution curve, where a heterogeneous population will show a characteristic bell shaped distribution. There will always be the above-average 20% at the upper end of the curve, and, of course, the below- average 20% at the other end of the curve. Being law, the binomial distribution curve, and Pareto’s Law, is unchangeable and cannot be altered. The problem is that some of the 20% would grumble why the other 80% do only 20% of the work.
