Acute Resource Divergence
What does this mean?
Revenue is contracting significantly, but executive compensation percentage is rising. The organization is refusing to adjust its administrative overhead to match its new economic reality.
The Path Forward
The Realignment
Forces immediate balancing of administrative bloat against actual programmatic output. It demands that every dollar extracted for overhead be justified by community impact.

Priority Review

Peer comparison
Compared to 222 other orgs in NC with NTEE prefix A6.
Most-divergent component: financial score sits 27 points below the peer median (25 vs. 52).
5-year trend: Acute Resource Divergence
Revenue is contracting significantly, but executive compensation percentage is rising. The organization is refusing to adjust its administrative overhead to match its new economic reality.
What's driving this score
- Comp-to-revenue ratio of 29.4% is modestly above the sector's healthy band (18–22%) — worth monitoring.
- Financial resilience score in the bottom quartile — reserves and liabilities ratios warrant review.
What would change this score
The two changes that would most improve this score:
- Reduce top-officer compensation from 29.4% to under 22% of revenue — would move governance score by ~15 points.
- Separate signing authority from fundraising authority when both are held by one person — removes the concentration penalty (~12 points).
Improving governance is a board decision. These are the levers.
