It is reviewed in detail by the Treasurer and Finance Committee. The tax return is distributed to the Board of Directors prior to filing. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c The Code of Conduct and Conflict of Interest policy is distributed at special staff meetings held annually. It is explained with examples and procedures given. Employees are required to disclose any conflicts of interest and to report new situations that arise during the year in order to determine if there is a conflict of interest. New employees are given the policy upon hire. There is a separate conflict of interest for board members, which is discussed at a board meeting at the beginning of the year. All board members must complete and sign a disclosure form listing any conflicts of interest or potential conflicts of interest. Board members are instructed to inform the Theatre of any conflict that might arise during the year. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a The Managing Director and Artistic Directors each report directly to the Board. The Executive Committee, all of whom are independent board members, hold an annual performance evaluation with each director, separately. The director prepares a written self-assessment of their performance for the year based on goals and objectives for the period and meets with the Executive Committee to review performance and set goals for the upcoming year. The director is excused and the Executive Committee further discusses their performance and sets compensation for the director, in consideration of the budget. At a subsequent board meeting, the process and outcome are presented to the board. Every 2 to 3 years, comparability data from other Form 990's and/or surveys on non-profit organizations is incorporated into the process. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 CTC makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.
