Lately, it seems that any sentence containing the words “nonprofit” and “compensation” is related to the scrutiny of pay provided to the presidents and other top executives of organizations. However, for most nonprofit organizations, far more compensation dollars are paid to the broader, non-executive employee population.

My presentation from the June 2010 Nonprofit Human Resources Symposium at the University of San Diego outlines the steps nonprofit organizations can follow to develop an implement an effective, performance-based base salary compensation program.
California, here I come!
I’m excited about participating in the San Diego Nonprofit Human Resources Management Symposium on Wednesday, June 16th, 2010. The event is sponsored by the Institute for Nonprofit Education and Research, part of the University of San Diego‘s School of Leadership and Education Sciences, and will take place on the USD campus.
Nonprofit Employment Trends
I look forward to participating in a panel discussion framed around the results of the recently completed 2010 Nonprofit Employment Trends Survey. This survey, conducted jointly by the Caster Family Center for Nonprofit and Philanthropic Research and Nonprofit HR Solutions, examines the employment practices of over 500 nonprofit organizations nationwide. Our discussion will focus on key findings including staff size and projected growth for 2010-2011, recruitment strategies and budgeting, key staffing challenges, and staffing resource management.
The Path to Pay for Performance
Following the panel discussion, I am conducting a seminar which will guide organizations in preparing for, developing, implementing, and maintaining effective, performance-based salary programs. We will examine the rationales, prerequisites, steps, and tools for a successful program, and participants will have the opportunity to ask questions about implementing pay for performance in their own organization.

On Monday, I had the opportunity to attend a highly informative and engaging forum which brought together government and nonprofit representatives to discuss the topic of strategic alliances and partnerships among nonprofit organizations. While the discussion focused on New York State’s nonprofit sector, the challenges, considerations, and ideas discussed are applicable to organizations nationwide. In the absence of a video or audio recording of the session, I wanted to share this detailed recap and my impressions of the session.

I love it when a plan comes together!
During last month’s #socentchat on Twitter, a discussion started among some of us in the New York City area about the idea of getting together in person, to meet, share ideas about social enterprise and social change, and see what might come of it. Tyler Ahn of Ashoka Changemakers took the lead, kept us on track, and has made it a reality!
I hope that everyone in the area with an interest in social enterprise and social change will consider joining us this Thursday, May 6th, anytime after 6:30pm, at the Village Pourhouse (64 Third Avenue at East 11th Street in Manhattan). We’ve got the big back room at our disposal and drink specials until 8:00pm. I look forward to meeting many of you there!
