            The Compensation Conundrum: Challenges and Opportunities
            Competitive and fair compensation is a critical element of managing staff, and how we compensate, recognize and reward our teams is under increasing scrutiny. In this session we will discuss two current “hot topics” in compensation – salary range transparency, and incentive pay. We’ll also cover the essential elements of a solid compensation program, and current thinking on best practices to share with Boards and staff.

            Data-driven decision-making: evolving and expanding the practice of using data in business decision-making
            Using data to make business decisions is a critical ingredient in achieving and maintaining success as a fundraising organization. Over the last years, the Foundation successfully used data in a number of key business areas. In 2021, the Foundation embarked on a significant organization-wide transformation to expand and integrate the practice of data-driven decision-making across more areas and levels of the organization. In this session, we will offer these practical examples of using data to support decision-making, as well as share the early lessons from the initial stages of the Foundation’s data transformation.
