Topic: Develop A Strategy To Test, Review, And Revise Your Strategy

As laughable as it may seem, a strategy to test a strategy is serious business. If you take a prescription medication being tested in trials on persons similar to yourself, what may not be apparent is the strategic planning during the testing phase of the development of the medication. Over a period of years, certain methods, called protocols, have been developed to test the effects of medications. In normal protocols, tests using the medication are first run on animals, then on humans. These protocols or testing strategies are continually scrutinized for effectiveness. You would not want to take a medication if the testing procedure used was faulty or flawed. If the testing procedure used was faulty or flawed, then the medication may not be effective at all. In a worse case scenario, the medication could even be dangerous if taken. To test your strategies, you must have a strategy to make sure your strategies work. One risky way to see if your strategies work is to test the strategy in a "live" setting without ever doing trials or trial runs. In our medication example, we could avoid testing the medication on animals and take the risk of giving the medication to humans to see what happens. The problem with this strategy could be some people might needlessly die in the process of testing. When you test your strategies, you can have a reasonable degree of confidence when you get to a "live" setting, your strategy can work because you have tested the strategy for effectiveness.
