EXERCISE PLANNING CYCLE AND DESIGNERS A crucial part of every exercise is receiving feedback from participants, evaluating responses, reporting to leadership and implementing (wherever feasible) all findings and lessons learned into the real world. CHAPTER SUMMARY       Planning and execution should always be followed by the evaluation and implementation stage. Since this is a long term-process, a special unit/group of employees should be dedicated to organizing cyber exercises. Provide education to exercise designers not only in the cyber field, but also in project management. Engage decision-makers with insufficient cyber knowledge (but not only them) by involving hot topics they know from the media. Make a checklist. Check and double-check everything. 24/29
