“Annually, each board member and key employee is asked to sign a consent form indicating that they will not engage in actions that may constitute an actual, apparent, or potential conflict of interest with the mission and activities of Yoga Alliance and will disclose to the board of directors, on the prescribed form and periodically as facts dictate, any such conflicts of interest and any business, financial, and organizational interests and affiliations that are or could be construed to be a conflict of interest. If a conflict of interest arises, the board considers the matter, with the board member with the potential conflict of interest recusing themselves form the matter. When an employee wishes to serve on boards, commissions, or in other outside activities that are in the public interest, they must first confirm with the President/CEO that the voluntary service is appropriate and does not present a conflict of interest with their work for Yoga Alliance. If a conflict of interest arises, Yoga Alliance interviews the employee in question to review the possible conflict. If it was determined that the employee had a genuine conflict of interest, he/she would be asked to cease the activity immediately to continue with employment.”

“One of the roles of the executive committee of the board of directors (bod) is to review the performances of the President/CEO and determine compensation on an annual basis. The BOD discusses compensation with outside counsel and purchases data that compares compensation for association and membership executives. Data is very detailed and breaks the information down regarding the organization's annual budget, number of employees, years in position, and geographic location. Information is shared and reviewed with the executive committee. The last review took place in May 2019.”
