Journal of Product Innovation Management Repeatability is made compelling by the copious survey and case data and by the authors' engaging presentation of their work.
Research-Technology Management This is not a recipe for doing nothing. Far from it.

The difference is it is likely to be more effective.
Future of Business (futureofbusinessblog.com) Repeatability provides business leaders with a blueprint for bringing consistency and clarity to their organizations and for putting them on track for profitable growth.

Repeatability is a terrific guide to adapting your business for success in uncertain times. Jorgen Vig Knudstorp, CEO and President, LEGO Group
Very few businesses move beyond surviving to actually thriving and winning in their segments. The secret is to focus on what truly makes them unique, and to frequently refine and adapt this to changing circumstances through a repeatable business model. This requires hard thinking on why your business exists, and strict discipline to stay focused. Chris Zook and James Allen show how this can be achieved through clear thinking and hard, enduring effort. Sandy Ogg, Operating Partner, Blackstone
Strategy is more than a plan, more than a vision. Strategy is about delivering something better to customers than your competitors every day, which means translating strategy into front line actions and behavior. It is about capabilities, it is about engagement. Repeatability is the missing link to turn strategy into action. A. M. Naik, Chairman and Managing Director, Larsen & Toubro Limited
Driving profitable growth year after year requires a synergy of various aspects
vision, strategy, execution, continuous learning
along with passion and commitment to organizational goals. Repeatability offers practicable ideas on how CEOs can develop and implement a business model to empower leaders across the organization to replicate a proven growth formula. Walter Kiechel III, author, The Lords of Strategy
For most industrial capitalists, the secret to success is being able to churn out the same product over and over, with uniform quality and at a predictable price. Zook and Allen argue that the key to strategic success is a company's ability to do approximately the same thing with its business model, replicating the essential voodoo it does so well, in new markets and with new products. It's a killer argument, one no strategist can afford to brush off. Angela Ahrendts, CEO, Burberry
Repeatability brilliantly encapsulates how executives today must lead change. Consistency and clarity for customers and your culture creates 'less complexity, more energy, and better connectedness.' Zook and Allen have proven this simple, adaptable model is critical for 'sustained value creation' of your company and greater community today. Sir Christopher Gent, Chairman, GlaxoSmithKline; former CEO, Vodafone
One of the hardest jobs of a CEO is to navigate the fine line between keeping the organization focused on day-to-day execution and making sure the company is ready to change its strategy in response to industry changes. With their idea of repeatable models that can adapt over time, Chris Zook and James Allen are offering something important to CEOs navigating a turbulent world. Show Less
