“Pursuant to the organization's conflict of interest policy, the board of trustees and senior management disclose actual and potential conflicts on an annual basis and as they arise during the year, using a form distributed to them. These disclosures are reviewed by the organization's compliance officer. In addition, staff are to disclose actual or potential conflicts of interest as they arise during the year to their vice president/executive director, who reviews the disclosure with the president and ceo and compliance officer. The president/ceo works with trustees and senior management to resolve any conflicts that arise or, where appropriate, refers the matter to the board of trustees. The vice president/executive director works with staff to resolve conflicts of interest if they arise. A conflict of interest may be resolved in a number of ways depending on the circumstances. For example, staff may be asked to change their job duties, an officer may have to withdraw from an external and conflicting activity, or a trustee may have to be excused from a board meeting where a matter involving the trustee is discussed and resolved.”

“Some of lutheran crossings at moorestown's senior management are employed by lutheran social ministries of new jersey, inc., a tax-exempt related organization. Following is the method used to determine compensation for those senior management employees. The board of trustees developed a plan for senior management compensation that maintains compensation at market levels, rewards exceptional performance, and encourages longevity. The structure of the plan was developed and approved by the board of trustees. The plan included an assessment of comparable market data. The deliberations of the board of trustees were documented and have been maintained in the form of written minutes. Salary survey data was used to determine compensation ranges for the senior management team ("smt"), including the president/chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and chief operating officer. The goal is to maintain the smt at market compensation for comparable positions as defined in the executive compensation review of the market for comparable positions. The board approves the plan and develops a ceo base salary and incentive compensation recommendation each year to be approved by the board of trustees. The board will review the salary and incentives that the ceo develops for the smt.”
