Peer comparison

Compared to 66 other orgs in OK with NTEE prefix A6.

5-year trend: Steady State

No extreme longitudinal divergence detected. The organization is maintaining its current operational philosophy.

What's driving this score

What would change this score

The two changes that would most improve this score:

  1. Separate signing authority from fundraising authority when both are held by one person — removes the concentration penalty (~12 points).
  2. Reduce top-officer compensation from 23.0% to under 22% of revenue — would move governance score by ~5 points.

Improving governance is a board decision. These are the levers.
