Hi Chili! Being "effective" is all about doing the right things. For example, choosing the right tasks to do in a certain circumstance, choosing the best method of selling something for example. "Efficiency" is all about doing something right, doing things in the quickest and most time-efficient way, and getting the best response in doing so. Essentially, these words can be interchangeable, but if you're looking for the distinction, this is it! Hope this is helpful!
