Idea Versus Execution
An article that addresses the common issues of "idea versus execution" and getting the credit you deserve. This article is partially a response to the Tech Crunch article, "If Execution is What Matters, Where Does That Leave Ideas?"

The 80-19-1 Rule
I expect that many of you are familiar with the Pareto principle (also known as the 80–20 rule.) If you aren’t, the simple definition is that for many phenomena 80% of the consequences come from 20% of the causes. Or – more practically – 80% of your company’s revenue comes from 20% of your customers, or 80% of your problems come from 20% of your customers, or 80% of your employee problems come from 20% of your employees. While it’s overused, it’s a good rule of thumb.
