        (b) What needs to happen by next month?

Potential options:
--Could devote part of GC meeting every month to discussion of a particular strategic goal  
--Committee Chairs can join GC meetings at regular intervals: who should join us?
--Separate meetings to discuss progress
--Create a schedule for reporting to full Board on Strategic Goal progress
--Other?
