80/20 Analysis
A one-page 80/20 worksheet drawn as a proper Pareto chart — ranked bars with a cumulative line and the 80% reference line marked. List the causes you're analysing with a value each (where your hours go, which issues recur, what drains the budget), and the sheet sorts them biggest first, works out each one's share and the running cumulative total, and flags the vital few that carry roughly 80% of the result. Those few are where your effort pays off; the rest is the trivial many that can wait. Print it blank to sketch a chart by hand. All the ranking and the percentages are done for you.
