Compensation questions are rising across the nonprofit sector.

Staff are asking about pay equity. Boards want benchmarking data. Leaders are under

So, how do you actually conduct a thoughtful market compensation analysis?

In this 1-hour session, Ascend People’s CEO, Whitney Herrington, will walk nonprofit
leaders through the key components of a market analysis from identifying appropriate
salary survey sources to matching complex roles, navigating geographic differentials,
aging compensation data, and applying market findings within your organization’s
compensation philosophy.

You’ll leave with:

• A clear understanding of what constitutes a credible market analysis
