Businesses must be efficient in their allocation of resources. In this lesson you can listen to two managers discussing the Pareto Principle, also known as the 80:20 rule, and how it can help you allocate business resources as well as things like your time and your effort. In addition, you will learn a number of ways to describe cause and effect, plus a number of useful business word partnerships.

In the Learning Center these partnerships are reviewed and expanded on, and you have a chance to use them in a short passage. Then in the practice session you can use what you have learned in several roleplays.
