Description
Summary:The case focuses on the extravagant salaries that executives in nonprofit organizations earn. This is illustrated with examples ranging from the former chief executive of the Smithsonian Institution to the director of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The Internal Revenue Service has responded to an extent to restrict this type of behavior in nonprofits. This case study asks students to consider whether the response to this business problem has been sufficient and to assess how charities themselves should tackle the issue of excessive salaries for executives.
