    KEYNOTE SPEAKERS Wednesday, August 25, 2021 1:30-2:30pm PROMISES MADE & KEPT: CHANGE AND THE PSYCHOLOGICAL CONTRACT AT WORK Charles Fields, MSHRM, CMP linkedin.com/in/chasfields Speaker Bio: As a human capital management (HCM) strategy consultant for UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group), Chas Fields helps organizations identify, assess, and maintain their human element, which increases efficiency and effectiveness cultivating a differentiated employee experience, and ultimately drives business success. Fields joined Kronos, Inc. in 2017 with a diverse background in HCM initiatives such as training and development, change management, operations, strategic planning, and project delivery. He deeply understands the impact that effective HCM strategies and solutions can have on both operations and human resources (HR), and his experience building and managing relationships with partners allows him to help strengthen long-term employee engagement and effectively train and develop employees. Session Description: It’s often said that change is the only constant, and this could not be truer when it comes to the world of work. Afterall, 2020 has brought about immense changes in the way we communicate, collaborate, and interact with managers and peers alike. It may be tempting to sit back and watch how change unfolds, but the employee experience and employee motivation, productivity, and organizational citizenship is directly affected by deliberate change management strategies implemented—or not implemented, by companies. Maintaining the psychological contract plays a vital role in the success or failure of organizational changes and shifts. In this presentation we will discuss the concept of the psychological contract at work and explore the (often forgotten and misunderstood) exchange relationship that has a myriad of impacts from both the employee and employer viewpoints.

  • 2010 Arts Advocacy Handbook
    2010 ARTS ADVOCACY HANDBOOK Celebrating 30 Years of Service to the Arts January 2010 Dear Arts Leader: As we celebrate our 30th year of service to the arts, we know that “Art Works in South Carolina” – in our classrooms and in our communities. We also know that effective advocacy must take place every day! And there has never been a more important time to advocate for the arts than NOW. With drastic funding reductions to the South Carolina Arts Commission and arts education programs within the S. C. Department of Education, state arts funding has never been more in jeopardy. On February 2nd, the South Carolina Arts Alliance will host Arts Advocacy Day – a special opportunity to celebrate the arts – to gather with colleagues and legislators – and to express support for state funding of the arts and arts education! Meet us at the Statehouse, 1st floor lobby (enter at the Sumter Street side) by 11:30 AM, to pick up one of our ART WORKS IN SOUTH CAROLINA “hard-hats” and advocacy buttons to wear. If you already have a hat or button, please bring them! We’ll greet Legislators as they arrive on the 1st floor and 2nd floors. From the chamber galleries, you can view the arts being recognized on the House and Senate floors. You may want to “call out” your legislator to let him or her know you are at the Statehouse and plan to attend the Legislative Appreciation Luncheon. Then join arts leaders and legislators at the Legislative Appreciation Luncheon honoring the Legislative Arts Caucus.

  • Haley up Big, Sheheen Narrowly in SC Governor Primaries
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 25, 2010 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Haley Up Big, Sheheen Narrowly in SC Governor Primaries Raleigh, N.C. – Polled over the weekend, before news broke of possible marital infidelity by gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley, South Carolina Republicans favor her by a wide margin over her primary opponents to replace outgoing governor Mark Sanford. Meanwhile, Jim Rex and Vincent Sheheen are in a tight battle for the Democratic nomination heading into the June 8th vote. Haley leads at 39%, with the other three contenders grappling for traction in the teens, Henry McMaster at 18, Gresham Barrett at 16, and Andre Bauer at 13. About as many, 14%, are undecided as favor the latter three. Haley and McMaster are both very well liked, with 47-13 and 43-22 favorability marks, while views on Bauer are decidedly negative, at 26-49. Barrett comes in at 28-18. Sheheen tops Rex 36 to 30, with Robert Ford at 11% and 23% still undecided. Over half of Democratic primary voters still have no opinion of Sheheen and Rex, but Sheheen is more popular, with a 31-11 favorability margin to Rex’s 29-19. Sanford still gets a 51% job approval rating among his base electorate, to 36% who disapprove. That is similar to December’s 50-34 margin among all Republican voters. Brought back to the fore with the recent comments by Kentucky Republican Senate nominee Rand Paul, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is supported by 58% of South Carolina Republican primary voters and opposed by only 15%, with 27% unsure.

    South Carolina Political Collections University of South Carolina Libraries Democratic Party of South Carolina Records, 1924-2008 Bulk, 1966-2008 Volume: 85 linear feet Processed: Originally processed by multiple staff members, c. 1988-1992; additions processed by Stephanie Stewart, 2004; reprocessed and significant additions added by Laura Litwer and Caitlin Mans, 2011-2012 Provenance: Donated by the Democratic Party of South Carolina Citation Form: Democratic Party of South Carolina Records, South Carolina Political Collections, The University of South Carolina Copyright: Copyright of the Democratic Party of South Carolina Records has been transferred to the University of South Carolina 1 Organizational History With roots dating back to the 18th century, the Democratic Party is the oldest continuously operational political party in South Carolina. However, the modern iteration of the party is frequently dated to 1876, when the election of Wade Hampton III as governor brought an end to the state’s Republican Reconstruction government and ushered in an era of almost absolute Democratic dominance in the state. As Don Fowler writes in the South Carolina Encyclopedia: Although there were vast differences of ideology, style, and sophistication among state Democrats, one overriding, enduring value and purpose held it together: maintaining a segregated party and society and ‘keeping the Negro population in their place,’ as well as an intense aversion to the Republican Party. Conflicts within the Democratic Party included elites versus populists, lowcountry versus upstate, mill workers versus mill owners, and conflicts of personality among political leaders. Without question, the dominant, controlling influence in South Carolina politics (and therefore the Democratic Party) was the established, conservative economic and social order.1 The Democratic Party of South Carolina (DPSC) exercised near-complete control over the state’s political scene through World War II.

EM Assistant Secretary Inés Triay has made it one of her top priorities to bring new budget and schedule discipline to the $15 billion of large-scale waste treatment plants and other specialized facilities that EM is building at its sites around the country. In the past, delays and cost overruns on those projects have led to critical reviews of EM’s performance by the Government Accountability Offi ce and other auditors. To change that, Triay has committed EM to adopting the successful Construction Project Review model for managing large, complex projects fi rst developed by the Department of Energy’s Offi ce of Science in the early 1980s and later adopted by the National Nuclear Security Administration as well. In This Issue It is a team approach built around peer reviews conducted at regular intervals by experts drawn from throughout EM and other parts of DOE.
