Talk:Vitality curve

message: The opening sentence doesn't seem particularly clear to me: "A vitality curve is a leadership construct, assigning credited with certain proportions of the production to proportions of a producing population" Could someobody reword it so that it makes more sense? 80.195.186.192 22:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: The opening sentence

message: It seems to me that "Vitality curve" should be treated as a part of Pareto principle a.k.a. the "80-20 rule" or the "law of the vital few".  Rank-and-yank should be treated either as a part of the same article or under the heading "rank-and-yank"; I think I would mildly prefer the latter, since it's distinct and is likely to have a fair amount of material specifically devoted to it. -- Beland 03:59, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: This article focuses on the criticism and adoption of the practice, while spending almost no time explaining what it is.
At the very least, I'd expect to see a trivial example (and diagram?) showing how it is done. Having read the article, I'm none-the-wiser how I would implement it.

thread_title:  Page doesn't really explain what a vitality curve is 

message: From the article on Pareto's Principal: Pareto's observation was in connection with population and wealth. Pareto noticed that approximately 80% of Italy's land was owned by 20% of the population. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle
Furthermore, in 1937, Joseph Juran stated that this principle also applied to defects, so that 80% of the problems are caused by 20% of the defects.
