Book Description

With Results, Not Reports, Peter Follows, CEO of Carpedia International, provides business leaders with a framework for lasting improvements in performance and profitability. Carpedia has a remarkable success rate in large-scale improvement programs, helping clients achieve their improvement goals over 90 percent of the time. In these pages, Peter explains how to achieve sustainable improvement through the dynamic management of process, performance, and people, emphasizing that all three components have an interdependent relationship and that the key is to address them concurrently.

Results, Not Reports is structured in a sequence that reflects an improvement cycle and is divided into three parts: Where to Look, What to Improve, and How to Get Results. Each section is designed to reinforce and build on the previous section, but they can be read independently. This book, written with practical clarity, is for senior leaders who need to execute their strategies and implement changes that stick.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Results, Not Reports is a must-read for any business leader. In this book, Peter Follows gives leaders a road map to dynamic management to improve performance and navigate through challenging and difficult situations in a sustainable and attainable way.

Results, Not Reports provides a sustainable approach to producing the performance all leaders desire as they make investments in strategic and operational plans to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, and value of their organizations.

The title of this book was the same pitch that sold me to use Carpedia to help me establish a best-in-class labor scheduling and management process at Hilton. Achieving the dramatic results required changing established processes, habits, and mindsets. Our leaders became better managers of labor with no negative impact on guest and employee satisfaction. They also never looked at their business in the same way given their incredible shift in mindset. Peter does a superb job of laying out strategy with Results, Not Reports.
Patrick Volz
Chief Operating Officer, Global Operations, Aimbridge Hospitality

Over the course of my nearly fifty-year career as an executive and a CEO, I eschewed utilizing consultants. There was only one exception, when I engaged Peter’s firm to prove to me that their unique approach worked. Their approach toward change and change management was like nothing I had ever seen or experienced. Peter’s Results, Not Reports captures the true essence of effective change management.
Jim Harrison
Former CEO, Party City Holdings & Amscan Holdings Inc

Having had the pleasure to work with Peter and his team in the past, I learned firsthand the importance of process, performance, and people. I’m excited to now have that knowledge and guidance as a tool to pull out whenever needed in Results, Not Reports.
