Nonprofit Executive Compensation: Planning, Performance, and Pay, Second Edition
by Brian Vogel and Charles W. Quatt
Given the increased scrutiny of the salaries of charity executives, it is imperative that boards have an open procedure for setting compensation responsibly, write the charity consultants Brian Vogel and Charles W. Quatt.
This updated edition explains how the new version of the Form 990, the informational tax return charities must file, affects the reporting of salaries. Charities will file the new form for the first time in 2010, if their fiscal year began in 2008 and ended in 2009. The book also provides advice on setting or adjusting pay during economic downturns, using survey data to study compensation within specific nonprofit markets, and reviewing salaries beyond the chief executive’s.
