“Living branches is a respected leader in continuing care, serving culturally and economically diverse older adults and families. To support achievement of the mission to continue providing services to older adults and families across a wide range of circumstances and to grow the service programs, the board of directors recognizes the critical importance of employing highly qualified senior staff to lead and direct the organization. In order to attract and retain the best leadership talent essential to fulfilling the mission and achieving financial performance necessary to sustain and grow the organization, the living branches board of directors adopted a compensation program for its senior executive leaders. The compensation program is designed to: provide competitive benefits and total cash compensation compared to similarly sized and similarly structured continuing care retirement communities; align expected executive staff performance with the mission, strategic objectives and operational goals of the organization; motivate high performance and recognize shared contributions in a highly competitive and regulated environment; recognize and incentivize the stability of the executive leadership team. The compensation program is intended to comply with irs regulations and applies specifically to the chief executive officer (ceo) who is hired, directed and evaluated by the board of directors. Other covered senior management staff under the irs guidelines include senior management persons who report directly to the ceo and may substantially influence the finances of the organization. In living branches structure, this includes the position of chief financial & technology officer. The compensation plan, while focused on the ceo position, provides guidance for the ceo to establish the compensation for other executive leaders in living branches. Competitive wage information for the compensation plan is sourced from continuing care retirement community (ccrc) compensation surveys, primarily the chief executives of multi-facility organizations (cemo) leadership compensation survey. In addition, the leadingage salary and benefits report and the leadingage pa regional salary survey are reviewed. The covered executive positions have an established salary range with a threshold, midpoint and maximum salary. The ranges are reviewed annually with the comparative data sources and are established by the executive committee of the board of directors. The target (or midpoint) salary for a fully qualified living branches executive is generally at the 75th percentile for similarly sized organizations from the comparative data sources. Compensation increases for the covered positions are approved by the executive committee of the board of directors upon the completion of annual performance appraisals and in accordance with the compensation plan. The executive committee documents its discussions and conclusions in executive committee meeting minutes.”
