James began his career at a local children\u2019s hospital, with the intention of pursuing a master\u2019s degree in hospital administration. Call it chance or fate, when a friend presented an opportunity for him to work in economic development with the Chamber of Commerce in Leadville, Colorado, it changed his course and began his nearly 30-year career in economic development. Following, James worked in various executive leadership capacities for economic development organizations in Cobb County and Tift County, Georgia and Clarksville, Tennessee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon joining the South Carolina Power Team in the fall of 2013, James ventured out to personally meet with more than 130 stakeholders within his first 100 days. From these one-on-one conversations emerged the framework for the South Carolina Power Team Strategic Blueprint, which provided resources to make South Carolina\u2019s electric cooperatives an essential partner for growth and development. With James at the helm, backed by a fully supportive board, a Strategic Blueprint was adopted in January 2014. Essential to the overall growth and future of the organization, James is charged with the strategy\u2019s implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since adopting the Strategic Blueprint, the electric cooperatives have played a key role in the attraction of $15.3 billion in capital investment and 41,981 jobs to South Carolina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>James is an avid fisherman of both fresh and salt water. He is also a committed road and gravel cyclist and has a passion for ultra-endurance events. James, along with 22 other cyclists, completed a 640-mile ride in seven days in an effort to raise awareness about heart disease and stroke with electric cooperative employees. James lives in Columbia, South Carolina with his wife, Stevie. Together, they have four adult children and three grandchildren. He and his wife love cooking, street food and travel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-teal-color has-text-color\" id=\"about-james\"><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>&quot;Etableringen av en ny industri som ger b\u00e4ttre jobbm\u00f6jligheter, <\/em><br><em>f\u00f6r m\u00e5nga kan det inneb\u00e4ra att en familjemedlem f\u00e5r sin f\u00f6rsta v\u00e4lbetalande <\/em><br><em>jobb.&quot;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-white-color has-dark-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"personal-facts\">Personliga fakta<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-teal-color has-text-color\" id=\"things-other-people-say-about-james\">Saker andra s\u00e4ger om James<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00e4r engagerande, rolig och har en viss karisma \u00f6ver sig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-teal-color has-text-color\" id=\"james-loves\">James \u00e4lskar...<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>hans familj och m\u00f6jligheten som hans yrke har gett honom att tj\u00e4na samh\u00e4llen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-teal-color has-text-color\" id=\"his-most-precious-time-is-spent\">Hans mest v\u00e4rdefulla tid spenderas...<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>spendera tid med sin fru och v\u00e4nner, cykla och laga mat.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-teal-color has-text-color\" id=\"interesting-facts\">Intressanta fakta\u2026<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>hans kulinariska hj\u00e4ltar \u00e4r Anthony Bourdain &amp; Andrew Zimmern \u2013 n\u00e4r James reser finns det inget han tycker \u00e4r b\u00e4ttre \u00e4n att g\u00e5 p\u00e5 gatorna och \u00e4ta lokal gatumat.
