Because of the intergovernmental nature of the Sea to Sky Collaborative, Nadia's boss suggests that open-ended goals may be preferable, as they offer greater flexibility. Nadia, a knowledgeable and experienced planner, tells her that well-designed goals should ________.
◦ be written down but not communicated to all parties
◦ be written in terms of actions rather than outcomes
◦ specify a clear time frame
◦ be easily attainable
◦ be communicated but not written down

After establishing the Collaborative's goals, Nadia's boss asks what contingency factors might influence the collaborative's plans to reach these goals. Nadia responds that planning contingency factors can be broadly grouped into three categories: ________.
◦ degree of environmental uncertainty, level of profitability, and organizational structure
◦ degree of environmental uncertainty, organizational structure, and communication effectiveness
◦ degree of environmental uncertainty, length of future commitments, and degree of urgency
◦ degree of urgency, length of future commitments, and communication effectiveness
◦ degree of environmental uncertainty, length of future commitments, and organizational level

While each community in the Sea to Sky Collaborative maintains its identity and independence, Nadia believes that the leverage of multi-governmental applications will ultimately secure more major funding in the future. However, due to the intergovernmental nature of the organization, Nadia, although in charge of the collaborative, wields little direct power over any member community individually. Which contingency factor best represents Nadia's situation?
◦ environmental uncertainty
◦ level in the organization
◦ degree of urgency
◦ time frame of future commitments
◦ communication effectiveness
