“A performance review for the executive director is done on an annual basis in september by the current serving board of directors chair. The board chair will discuss the performance review with the board executive committee and a proposed salary increase is voted on by the entire board of directors at a general board meeting. Funding restrictions of the organization limit the salary that can be offered to the executive director, therefore salary comparability data is rarely used when salary is determined.”
