National Compensation Study 2009-2010

The bulk of the study is oriented toward you. We have over 3,300 national and international (US based) associations represented--ranging in annual revenues from as small as $12,000 to $2 billion. There are over 1,000 associations with annual revenues of $5 million or more.

You will see easy-to-read charts and tables showing compensation by type of association, budget size, geographic location (the four major geographical areas of the U.S., plus Washington DC, New York City, and Chicago), and by 22 different industry or professional groups.

You will also see a wide range of key compensation benefits, according to association size, including:
  • Type of Contract or Letter of Agreement 
  • Severance Arrangement 
  • Retirement Plans 
  • Spouse Travel 
  • Gross Revenues Per Employee 
  • Annual Percentage Increases 
  • CEO Compensation as a Percentage of Annual Revenues 
  • Deferred Compensation 
  • Bonuses and Commissions 
  • Life Insurance 
  • Car Allowance 
For Large Revenue National Association CEOs
A special section specifically for CEOs of large associations with annual revenues of $10 million or more contains compensation information on nearly 700 CEOs. Compensation figures (including base salary and total compensation) are presented according to revenue size and type of membership (individual vs. trade).
