In establishing a recommendation for compensation, the committee reviews compensation comparability factors obtained from the irs form 990 of similar local nonprofit organizations and/or credible salary survey data as well as the president and ceo's written overview. A member of the committee presents the recommended compensation package to the board of directors during a subsequent executive session for approval.
