Price’s law

[Note: this could be some random bullshit on Linkedin, but I thought it interesting.]

50% of the work is done by the square root of the total number of people who participate in the work.

He tested it across different groups and audiences and it almost universally applied.

Especially in business.

The square root of the number of people in a company do 50% of the work.

Competence grows linearly.

Incompetence grows exponentially.

??? What does this mean?

This is similar to the 80-20 Rule 202212291608

Note 12-29-22: Apparently, this is a “poor fit” according to empirical data.
