“Part vi, section b: policies, line 12 every board member and officer of nfib young entrepreneur foundation is required to disclose any actual or potential conflicts of interest on an annual basis. Process of determining compensation for officers part vi, section b: policies, line 15 the executive committee of the board of directors of nfib recommends the compensation of all officers of the organization. All officers' compensation is then formally approved by the nfib board of directors. In late 2016, an outside compensation consulting firm was engaged to provide expert analyses regarding the reasonableness of the 2017 total compensation package for the executives of nfib and its affiliates. The committee relies on this independent review to ensure that reasonable compensation is paid to the officers. The committee's philosophy is to ensure that the compensation for these positions, relative to market comparisons, is competitive in order to attract, retain and motivate qualified employees while not being at the top of the range. The committee sets the compensation for the officers each year during their meeting which is typically held in february. Minutes from these annual meetings are taken by the corporate secretary during the meeting. When the minutes are reviewed and approved, they are retained with all other corporate records.”
