The study encompasses all staff positions at the organization and is developed through a review of reputable local, state, and national salary benchmarking studies conducted for nonprofit organizations and community foundations. The report is updated every three years, most recently completed in 2025. The ed drafts an annual workplan at the start of each year that identifies critical goals and actions to guide her work in the year ahead. The workplan is reviewed and voted on by the full board. Each spring, the ed completes an annual self-evaluation and reports on all progress made within her yearly workplan. The executive committee reviews these documents and invites the full board to provide input on the ed's performance review. The board chair and vice chair synthesize this information and meet with the ed to discuss the review. A recommendation for the ed's salary adjustment is then made by the executive officers based on results of her performance review, the findings of the salary benchmarking study, and funds available in the board approved budget. 15b) salary benchmarking study is conducted and reviewed by the executive committee every three years.
