Prior to the exercise, participants were provided with (gnlcc_framework_final_small.pdf, GNLCC_Priorities_Crosswalk_Exercise1_Goals_Stressors_Targets_1-12-16b.pptx) which includes the guidance from the Steering Committee (Fall 2015 meeting, Missoula) to “narrow GNLCC priorities” through an “improved process focusing on needs and outcomes”. Staff initiated a process to cross-walk sets of GNLCC principles (e.g., Goals, Stressors, Targets) to parse and refine the potential array of priorities (see .pptx for more detail). The process included a series of polls conducted in real time during a live Adobe Connect session. Participants were given time to support their choices using text-based chat boxes and phone connections....
