EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROCESS -
Carnegie Institute adopted an Executive Compensation
Policy aimed at providing a reasonable and competitive
executive total compensation consistent with market-based
performance compensation practices for individuals
possessing the experience and skill needed to improve the
overall performance of the organization. The Institute
focuses on comparable nonprofit organizations in the
local area to benchmark pay, along with data from addi-
tional market segments, private foundations and published
not-for-profit surveys. The board authorizes the Presi-
dent, in consultation with the independent Executive Com-
mittee (EC)to establish an organizational job evaluation
system and compensation policy. The Pres./CEO annually
reviews and approves museum/corporate goals and objectives
relevant to Executives, evaluates their performance and
recommends to the EC compensation levels based on the
evaluations. The EC reviews recommendations and grants
approval as appropriate. The EC annually reviews and
approves corporate goals and objectives relevant to
Pres./CEO compensation based on comparables, the evaluation
and subject to any employment contract that is in
effect. The process/conclusions are contemporaneously
documented in EC meeting minutes.
