MIDLANDS NEWSROOM

Change was the one constant in 2020. With the COVID-19 pandemic altering every facet of life, from health care to entertainment, this past year brought new ways of doing things on a monthly, weekly, and often daily basis. Nonessential businesses shuttered their doors as spring approached, then cautiously reopened them with new restrictions in summer. Local municipalities passed mask regulations as small businesses applied and waited for federal aid. More than three quarters of a million South Carolinians lost their jobs, with 789,035 unemployment claims filed in the state since March 15 as of Dec. 5. And while S.C.’s unemployment rate rebounded from a record high of 12.1% in April to 4.2% in October, thousands faced the reality of expiring federal benefits as December drew to a close. Most soberingly, confirmed cases of COVID-19 claimed the lives of nearly 4,300 South Carolinians through early December, according to the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control, with more than 225,000 cases reported in the state. Amid the struggles, a sense of resiliency emerged. Business owners found safe ways to connect with customers, with popular restaurants offering curbside pickup and expanded delivery service. Local manufacturers such as 3D printing company ZVerse and generic drug manufacturer Nephron pivoted to meet demand for personal protective equipment and supplies while diversifing their product and supply lines. Though the pandemic dominated headlines, other news also commanded attention in the Midlands in 2020. Local historic landmark the Babcock Building suffered extensive damage in a September fire, though a Virginia company redeveloping the centerpiece of the BullStreet District into luxury apartments vowed to press on with those plans. Local nonprofits sought to help folks in search of affordable housing and needing emergency home repairs, and area colleges graduated nurses eager to get to work in a changing health care landscape. Columbiaarea architects contained to innovate, winning regional recognition for sustainable design, and Five Points institution The Village Idiot celebrated its 30th anniversary, albeit in a different-than-envisioned atmosphere. In the final weeks of 2020, hopes of frontline workers soon receiving a COVID-19 vaccine grew while area establishments marked year-end anniversaries with low-scale, low-occupancy celebrations. Thoughts turned to the new year with scientific advances giving rise to cautious optimism for 2021.

ABOUT THE COVER: Like many events, Columbia’s Famously Hot New Year will look a little different in 2020. In its 10th year, the celebration will be virtual, with an online performance by headliner Arrested Development and contributions to Harvest Hope Food Bank encouraged. In 2019, the party was capped by fireworks blooming above the S.C. Statehouse. (Photo/Jeff Blake/JeffBlakePhoto.com)

Technical college enrollment expanded during the Great Recession. As unemployment increased, many sought the cost-effective training necessary to embark on a new career that the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s technical college system offers. As jobs became more plentiful, that enrollment has declined. The pandemic may have a similar impact as the thousands of unemployed workers looking for their next job could turn to the technical colleges to improve their employment chances.

When hiring or promoting people who lead others, you must be confident in your decision because making a poor manager/leader decision is one of the most consequential and expensive mistakes found in business today. To help businesses protect themselves, we created a proprietary fourprong strategy to help you hire and promote the very best - every time. There are four tools used in this strategy, and every leader should possess them when hiring or promoting people who lead others: Job Benchmark

Job Description

Multi-Science Assessment

Interview & Selection Training

A thorough job benchmark job benchmark is developed is developed by answering by answering questions required questions about requiredabout accountabilities, accountabilities, acumen, behaviors, and acumen, behaviors, motivators, and more motivators demanded demanded by the job. by the job.

A multi-science assessment is required for leadership hiring decisions. When a candidateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assessment is compared to the Job Benchmark, you have most of the information required to make an intelligent selection decision.

After developing the Job Benchmark development of a Job Description is much simpler. You will find your job descriptions are much more accurate and useful when motivators, accumen, and behaviors are included.

A manager must be properly trained to interview and select job candidates. Without these skills, the likelihood of success is very low. The tools and training we provide can make every manager a successful interviewer and hiring decision-maker.

Your local partner for charitable giving. Together, we can make charitable giving convenient, eﬀective, and rewarding for both you and your clients. Since 1984, we have worked with estate planners, ﬁnancial advisors, accountants, insurance agents, and attorneys within the Midlands community to help their clients with charitable planning. Think of Central Carolina Community Foundation as the charitable arm of your team. As experts in philanthropy with in-depth knowledge of community needs, we can assist you and your clients through every step of the giving process. And you retain complete control of your client relationships. Our primary goal is to inspire charitable giving and to help your clients build lasting testaments and support the causes they care about most.

We can: • Identify your clients’ charitable giving interests and goals • Collaborate with you to match your clients’ charitable interests with eﬀective giving strategies • Provide information about community needs and the organizations making a diﬀerence in the areas your clients care about most • Deliver concierge-level services to you and your clients related to their charitable giving

CCCF staff helped an anonymous donor, “The Cheerful Giver,” identify 47 local nonprofits that matched their passions. The nonprofits received a surprise $10,000 grant from the donor at a breakfast.
