In this episode host Grant Sheehan explores the challenges when blue-collar supervisors or board members oversee white-collar staff, focusing on salary, benefits, communication, and fairness. He discusses differing perspectives, the importance of data-driven salary matrices, open communication, education on roles, representation on compensation committees, and aligning pay with organizational goals.

Listeners will gain practical considerations for fostering mutual respect, creating transparent compensation policies, and using market data to make equitable decisions that support recruitment, retention, and overall credit union success.
