Modeling What Matters SeriesThe Few Who Carry the Many: What Price's Law Reveals about Team PerformanceIn the kickoff to our new series Modeling What Matters, Kevin and Leeanne McManus explore Price’s Law — the idea that a small percentage of people often carry the majority of a team’s output. But instead of leaving it there, they dig into what leaders (and teammates) can do about it.You’ll hear:What Price’s Law is and why it shows up everywhere — from tomato plants to software teamsThe risks: burnout, inequality, and imposter syndrome if it goes unmanaged.How leaders can “model what matters” by setting benchmarks, raising the bar for everyone, and building empathy across roles.Practical ways to propagate excellence — pairing, cross-training, and fostering T-shaped (or even M-shaped) skills.Why context matters: when to expect standout performers vs. when systems require consistent output.This episode is about more than just productivity math — it’s about creating a culture where the few don’t have to carry the many, because the whole team is being lifted.If you’ve ever led a team or wondered why some people seem to shoulder more than others, this conversation is for you.
