3. Innovative Speakers Go Beyond Industry Challenges
RILA Senior Vice President of Retail Operations Lisa LaBruno recently sat down with some of the general session speakers, including Amy Walter, national editor of the Cook Political Report, and Joe Navarro, former FBI special agent, ahead of the conference. Read their Q&As on rila.org/news/retailcheckout and bring your best questions to their sessions.

4. Interaction Plays a Role
Interaction among speakers, attendees and exhibitors has always been a hallmark of the conference. This year should be no different with:
• 6 hours of exhibit hall time
• Networking with colleagues from top national retailers
• 90-minute open forums delivering valuable give and take
• Q&A in mobile app: great interaction between audience an speaker
• The MapYourShow tool provides opportunity for pre-event collaboration

5. Post-Conference Workshop: Tips for Evaluating Truthfulness Using Nonverbal Behavior
Building on his closing keynote, . David Matsumoto will lead a three-hour post-conference workshop, “Microexpressions: More Than Meets the Eye,” teaching participants through practical exercise how to evaluate truthfulness by recognizing micro-facial expressions of emotion. Participants will leave the workshop with a new skill that can be put to good use immediately.
