Most companies say they review strategy quarterly. In practice, the quarterly review is a status report dressed up as strategy.

Real strategy review asks: are the assumptions we made three months ago still true? If they are, double down. If they are not, change the strategy now, not next year.

The cadence depends on the speed of the market you operate in. In stable industries, biannual is enough. In AI, energy, or anything export-driven in 2026, monthly is closer to right. Some early-stage segments need a fortnightly check.

What kills strategy is not absence of review. It is review without honesty about what changed.

A useful litmus test: in the last three months, has any leadership decision overturned a previous one based on new information? If not, you are not running a strategy review. You are running a confirmation ritual.
