      Summary of Repeatability (Chris Zook and James Allen)

      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      Everyone wants to grow their revenues and yet when the results are analyzed, the companies which end up achieving growth don’t generally chase hot markets. Instead, they focus on building a repeatable business model which takes advantage of what they already do well. Repeatability – repeating what is already working – is the real key to growth because it avoids the strangulation by complexity which strikes many organizations.

      The best way to grow is to not to look for new projects to pursue. Instead, build your own Great Repeatable Business Model.

      Our data shows that simplicity, focus, and mastering the art of continuous change nearly always trump strategies of radical change or constant reinvention. The complexity and disruption that result are the great silent killers of growth and can even lead to binge and purge cycles that ultimately weaken the core of businesses. We find in our research that enduring success is not about the choice of market, but about the essential design of a company (a much more controllable variable) and about harnessing the power of continuous improvement and adaptation—driving learning and competitive advantage deeper and deeper into the fabric of a business.
