About Kenneth Privette

KENNETH R. PRIVETTE, MBA 70 Anson Court Sumter, SC 29150 T: 803-331-4284 (Mobile) E: krprivette@hotmail.com PROFILE I am a "retired" business professional with broad HR and general management leadership experience and strong business acumen. My background is diverse and includes various organizational challenges, including: multi-site and multi-state responsibilities; business start-ups and closures; tactical (day-to-day) management and strategic leadership, involving change management (culture -"Lean"), compliance management (corporate governance, employment law, contract management, etc.), project management, compensation/benefit program design/management, and talent management initiatives. As a results-oriented leader, I encourage effective working relationships through positive employee relations strategies and leading by example. Being a fact-based problem-solver, I hold myself accountable for meeting commitments, adding bottom line value, and exceeding customer expectations. My personal philosophy is providing low cost, high quality, and on-time delivery of products and services and maintaining "line-of-sight" on the organization's strategic goals.
